Abstract: (Elsevier)

We made a cylindrical calorimeter which consisted of plastic scintillating fibers and lead. This calorimeter was designed to serve as an active beam shield for the VENUS detector [1] at the TRISTAN electron-positron collider [2]. This device has been successfully used as a beam background shield and as a luminosity monitor of the VENUS detector.
