摘要：
We report on the calibration and performance of a large lead liquid-argon electromagnetic calorimeter used by experiment E706 at Fermilab. The reconstructed pi(0) mass was used to calibrate the energy response of the calorimeter. The systematic uncertainty in the linearity and uniformity of the mean-energy response of the calorimeter after calibration was found to be less than +/- 0.5% for the sample of data analyzed. Detector characteristics, including sampling fluctuations and position resolution, are discussed. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
