Περίληψη:
Experiment 705 at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory has designed,
built, and operated a large acceptance, highly segmented electromagnetic
shower calorimeter using SF5 lead glass, SCG1-C scintillating glass, and
two types of gas-based fine-grained hodoscopes. The calorimeter was used
to reconstruct photons and electrons with energies ranging from a few
GeV/c2 to over 100 GeV/c2 in 300 GeV/c pion and proton interactions on a
lithium target at instantaneous interaction rates approaching several
MHz. Construction details of the calorimeter are given. The readout
electronics, calibration, and algorithms used to reconstruct the
positions and energies of showering particles are discussed. Energy
resolution, position resolution, and reconstruction efficiency are
assessed using both calibration electron beams and electrons and pi0
mesons reconstructed in 300 GeV/c interactions.
