Abstract: (Elsevier)
The first prototype of a scintillator tile hadron calorimeter with longitudinal tile orientation and wavelength shifting fiber readout has been built and tested with pion, electron and muon beams at the CERN SPS. This innovative geometry combines good performance and a simple and cost effective assembly procedure. Calibration and monitoring of this detector have also been investigated.
