5 A. GasparianCal. Workshop, Oct. 31, 20085 HYCAL in Hall B with Transporter  1152 PbWO 4 crystal detectors  576 Pb-glass Cherenkov detectors  Energy resolution  Position resolution  Good photon detection efficiency @ 0.1 – 5 GeV;  Large geometrical acceptance PbWO4 crystals resolution Pb-glass budget Design concept hybrid calorimeter

6 A. GasparianCal. Workshop, Oct. 31, 20086 HyCal Temperature Stabilization Gain vs. temperature: ~ 2% per degrees @ 18 degrees

7 A. GasparianCal. Workshop, Oct. 31, 20087 Beam Tests: PbWO 4 Energy Resolution 6 x 6 crystals  E /E = 1.3 % 1 x 1 3 x 3 HYCAL Beam Test Prototype Tests

8 A. GasparianCal. Workshop, Oct. 31, 20088 Beam Tests: PbWO 4 Position Resolution  x = 1.3 mm Prototype Tests HYCAL Beam Test

9 9/14/20159 HYCAL: Transition Region

10 A. GasparianCal. Workshop, Oct. 31, 200810 Summary  Based on these crystal modules a high resolution Hybrid Electromagnetic calorimeter (HyCal) has been designed, developed and constructed with the 1118 x 118 cm 2 size.  The expertise and accumulated experience of the PrimEx collaboration can be used to construct a larger size crystal calorimeter to be used in different 12 GeV leading experiments.  The PrimEx collaboration in the past eight years has been developed and constructed 1250 PbWO4 high resolution crystal shower detector modules.  The HyCal undergone successful tests in the PrimEx experiment with high intensity photon beam passing the central 4x4 cm 2 hole during three months of radiation.
