Abstract
The characteristics of BaF2 barium fluoride crystals, grown from the materi als provided by manufacturers, were investigated. The parameters which are important for application of the crystals in low-energy physics, electromag netic high-energy, calorimeters for detecting gamma rays and electrons, and measurement of energy in the maximum possible range from tens of MeV up to hundreds of GeV as well as applications in medicine, instrument building, geology and so on, were measured. 7 figures, 3 tables, 13 references.
