Abstract
The results of tests on a compensated lead hadron calorimeter with cell siz e 10 x 10 cm(2), thickness 8 nuclear interaction lengths and sampling of 16 mm lead, 4 mm scintillator, with hadron, electron and lead-ion beams up to 32 TeV total energy are presented. The hadronic energy resolution of the c alorimeter is 57%/rootE, the nonuniformity is better than 10% and the measu red ratio e/h = 1.01. Five hundred cells of this calorimeter have been made for experiments at CERN and IHEP, Protvino. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
