Hodoscope of total absorption cherenkov spectrometers for hadronic radiative decay research

  • 1. AN SSSR, Moscow. Fizicheskij Inst.

Description

A hodoscope of the Cherenkov shower counters comprised in the JINR BIS-2 installation is described. The hodoscope consists of two arms each of them including 70 elements. A lead glass unit TF-1 with 100x100x350 mm3 dimensions is used in each element as a radiator. Hodoscope irradiation by e+e--pairs from gamma-quantum conversion in the installation target has been exercised for calibration control. Pulses of the pair components have been determined by proportional chambers. Mean energy resolution of the hodoscope elements (FWHM) is described by a formula depending on incident electron energy. The conducted investigations reveal that the shower counter permits to obtain not worse than 14% resolution by the π0-meson mass in the 2-10 GeV range
