A new monitoring system for the photon spectrometer LEDA in the WA98 experiment

Description

We report on the design, construction, and test of a new gain monitoring system developed for the 10 000-module lead-glass calorimeter in the WA98 experiment. The system combines precision monitoring and modularity according to the general detector design. It is based on pulsed LEDs and photodiodes. The complete system was successfully used in an electron calibration and during the first Pb-ion beam time at the CERN SPS. (orig.)
