Abstract
A hadron calorimeter in which scintillators are arranged nearly parall el to the incident particle direction and light is collected by optica l fibres with WLS, has been built. The iron absorber plates are of the tapered shape to fit a barrel structure of the collider geometry. The performance of the calorimeter studied with hadron beam is presented as a function of tilt angle without and with electromagnetic calorimet er in front of the hadron one.
