title = "The response and resolution of an iron-scintillator calorimeter for hadronic and electromagnetic showers between 10 GeV and 140 GeV",
abstract = "The energy resolution and response of a segmented iron-scintillator total absorption calorimeter has been measured for pion energies from 10 to 140 GeV and for electron energies up to 50 GeV. A procedure has been found to weight individual counter responses for hadron showers which results in improved energy resolution at high energies and a nearly linear dependence of response on hadron energy above 30 GeV. There is evidence in the data that this weighting procedure compensates for fluctuations in energy deposition due to the electromagnetic component of the hadronic shower. For an iron sampling thickness of 2.5 cm the hadron energy resolution follows a 0.58 E law, while the resolution for electromagnetic showers is 0.23 E.",

note = "Funding Information: The energy resolution and response of an iron-scintillator total absorption calorimeter has been measured for pion energies between 10 and 140 GeV and for electron energies between 10 and 50 GeV. The purpose of this measurement was to evaluate the design of the improved calorimeter for the CDHS neutrino experiment, WA1, CERN \[1\]. The model calorimeter that was used for these measurements had the same longitudinal structure as the new WA1 detector, but smaller lateral dimensions.
