Description
The CALICE collaboration is developing calorimeters for use in the
Particle Flow approach (PFA) to jet energy measurement in future particle
accelerator experiments. A highly granular electromagnetic calorimeter
is central to this program and two prototypes , based on two different
technologies were consequently built. Both are sampling calorimeters:
Silicon-Tungsten and scintillator-Tungsten with MPPC read out, respectively.
They were tested extensively with particle beams, their performance
(linearity, resolution, uniformity) measured and found to be within
the PFA requirements. We will report on the measured performance of the prototypes, as well
as on the planned future R&D developments.
