Abstract

Possibilities to improve high energy electromagnetic calorimetry by means of suitable calorimeter segmentation are discussed. Some resulting improvements are examined concerning spatial resolution, photon-π⁰ separation, electron-hadron separation and energy resolution as far as dominated by rear leakage. One way to realize such a calorimeter is discussed by a specific example.

A calorimeter module of 17 radiation lengths depth has been built. Wavelength shifter (WLS) bars coupled to rectangular silicon photodiodes (PDs) are used as readout. Considerations in the design of the WLS bars, with particular emphasis on optimising the efficiency for PD readout, are discussed. The energy resolution for electrons has been determined to be about $9% √E$ between 2 and 50 GeV. The response to hadrons is presented and the prospects for the construction of a full-sized hadron calorimeter are discussed.
