Abstract: (Elsevier)
We report on the simulated performances of a non-homogeneous e.m. calorimeter based on a 5 X 0 tracking section using Csl(Tl) fibres, followed by a 10 X 0 Pb-SCIFI head-on back section. Our study shows that such a technique is quite promising for the high-efficiency detection of photons in the energy range of interest at a Φ-factory machine.
