Abstract
The cylindrical electromagnetic calorimeter of the MPD experiment being built within the framework of the NICA project, is assembled from 50 half-sectors, each contains 768 ‘‘shashlyk’’-type towers of different sizes and various spatial orientations. Methods for calibrating individual half-sectors with cosmic-ray muons under test-bench conditions are currently being developed. This article discusses the applicability of these methods to a fully assembled calorimeter ready for experiments on a heavy ion collider.
期刊介绍:
Physics of Atomic Nuclei is a journal that covers experimental and theoretical studies of nuclear physics: nuclear structure, spectra, and properties; radiation, fission, and nuclear reactions induced by photons, leptons, hadrons, and nuclei; fundamental interactions and symmetries; hadrons (with light, strange, charm, and bottom quarks); particle collisions at high and superhigh energies; gauge and unified quantum field theories, quark models, supersymmetry and supergravity, astrophysics and cosmology.
