Prototype Lead Tungstate Calorimeter Test for TPEX
Tests of a prototype lead tungstate calorimeter were made over two weeks at
the end of September, 2019, at the DESY II Test Beam Facility in Hamburg,
Germany. The purpose of these tests was to gain experience with the
construction, operation, and performance of a simple lead tungstate
calorimeter, and also to compare a traditional triggered readout scheme with a
streaming readout approach. These tests are important for the proposed
Two-Photon Exchange experiment at the DESY test beam facility and for work
towards a future electromagnetic calorimeter that could be used in an
Electron-Ion Collider detector. Details on all aspects of the test, the
subsequent analysis, and the results are presented.Comment: 7 pages, 15 figure
