A section of the UA1 uranium/tetramethylpentane forward calorimeter has been tested with muon and electron beams from the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The module has a semi-octagonal shape, so that it will closely surround the beam pipe in the end-cap calorimeter region. The mechanical and electrical requirements of this design, needed to provide a full hermeticity for a large detector, have been successfully solved to achieve an excellent overall response of the calorimeter.

Abstract
A section of the UA1 uranium/tetramethylpentane forward calorimeter has been tested with muon and electron beams from the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron. The module has a semi-octagonal shape, so that it will closely surround the beam pipe in the end-cap calorimeter region. The mechanical and electrical requirements of this design, needed to provide a full hermeticity for a large detector, have been successfully solved to achieve an excellent overall response of the calorimeter.File in questo prodotto:
