Description

The design of a very small angle luminosity monitor for the ALEPH detector at LEP is described. The detector consists of four calorimeter modules made of alternating layers of tungsten and scintillators plus one layer of silicon strips for shower localization. Tests of the performance of the calorimeter and initial results obtained in LEP are also described. (orig.)
