DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10117872· OSTI ID:10117872
Beam test results of the liquid krypton electromagnetic calorimeter with a projective accordion type electrode structure are presented. The electrode had a fine segmentation in the front to enhance {pi}{sup 0} rejection and pointing. The test was carried out at the H4 line at the CERN SPS with e{sup {minus}} beams between 20 and 200 GeV. Preliminary results of energy resolution, linearity, {mu} response and the dependence of the energy resolution on the amount of inactive material in front of the calorimeter are presented.
