The KLOE detector is designed primarily for the study of direct CP violation in K0 decays as mentioned in this paper. But it is not suitable for the measurement of the electromagnetic calorimeter, which is the most demanding element of the detector.
Abstract:
The KLOE detector is designed primarily for the study of direct CP violation in K0 decays. The electromagnetic calorimeter, EmC, is a most demanding element of the detector. Two prototypes of the EmC (one for the barrel and one for the end-cap region) have been built at Frascati and tested at PSI (Switzerland) using beams of electrons, muons and pions of 40 to 290 MeV/c momentum, and at the Frascati LADON facility using photons of 20 to 80 MeV. We observe excellent linearity from 20 to 290 MeV. The energy resolution is σ(E)/E ∼ 4.4% / ”E(GeV) and the time resolution is ∼ 34 ps/”E(GeV). We found little dependence on incidence angle and entry position. We also determined that some πμ identification is possible.
TL;DR: In this paper, the construction of the KLOE lead-scintillating fibres electromagnetic calorimeter has been completed, and the final results of extensive quality checks of all the Calorimeter modules are presented.
TL;DR: In this article, various factors that contribute to and limit the energy resolution of practical calorimeters are discussed, and fundamental misconceptions in this context are discussed as well as the importance of signal linearity in particle physics experiments.
TL;DR: A review of the use of plastic scintillator in large experimental installations for particle physics, with a special emphasis on calorimetry in multi-purpose collider experiments and neutrino physics, is given in this paper.
TL;DR: A photon beam test of the lead/scintillating-fibre module for the GlueX electronic barrel calorimeter was carried out in Hall B at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility with the objective of measuring the energy and timing resolutions of the module as well as the number of photoelectrons generated as mentioned in this paper.
TL;DR: In this article, a prototype of the high-sampling lead-scintillating fiber KLOE calorimeter was exposed to neutron beam of 21, 46, and 174 MeV, provided by the The Svedberg Laboratory (TSL), Uppsala, to study its neutron detection efficiency.
TL;DR: In this article, prototypes for a new type of calorimeter, intended for the detection of both electromagnetic (em) and hadronic showers, muons and missing energy (eg neutrinos) at high-luminosity multi-TeV pp colliders, were tested.
TL;DR: The Omega Inner Calorimeter as mentioned in this paper is a dense electromagnetic calorimeter made of scintillating fibres embedded in grooved Pb sheets or similar configuration, which is entering its third year of successful operation.
