A total absorption spectrometer for energy measurements of high-energy particles

A sampling total absorption counter (STAC) is described, which consists of a sandwich of iron and scintillator plates. It permits the energy determination of neutrons or other strongly interacting particles with energies above 3 GeV. The optimization of the energy resolution and other properties of...

description A sampling total absorption counter (STAC) is described, which consists of a sandwich of iron and scintillator plates. It permits the energy determination of neutrons or other strongly interacting particles with energies above 3 GeV. The optimization of the energy resolution and other properties of the counter are reported. At 24 GeV /c an energy resolution of +or-11% was achieved. (6 refs).
