Development of a SplitCAL Prototype — •Matei Climescu and Rainer Wanke — Johannes Gutenberg Universität Mainz

The SplitCAL is a mixed electromagnetic calorimeter designed to provide both energy reconstruction through layers of scintillating strips read out by wavelength shifting fibres and shower direction information through high-precision layers. This enables particular precision in the reconstruction of photon final states e.g. arising from Dark Matter decays in fixed target experiments. The development accounts for low rates but a large dynamic range to allow for reconstruction of both electromagnetic showers and MIPs. The focus of this presentation will be the design and building of the SplitCAL calorimeter as well as the evaluation of its readout electronics.
