Uniformity in the ATLAS electromagnetic calorimeter measured in test-beams

  • 1. LPNHE, IN2P3-CNRS, Universites Paris VI et Paris VII (France)

Description

The construction of the ATLAS liquid argon electromagnetic calorimeter has been completed and all the modules are assembled and are in the cryostat in the ATLAS cavern. During the construction, three barrel modules and three endcap modules were exposed to beam test in order to assess the uniformity performance and to verify the production reproducibility of the detector. The energy reconstruction method and the performance with electron beams are presented here. An overall constant term below 0.7 % is obtained
