Abstract
This paper describes the results of a beam test using the Engineering Model of the GLAST Large Area Telescope, which was installed in a beam of positr ons, hadrons and tagged photons at SLAC. The performance of the four subsys tems, Anti Coincidence Detector, Silicon Tracker, Calorimeter and Data Acqu isition will be described. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserv ed.
