Abstract

A hadron calorimeter comprising 10 mm depleted uranium plates and 5 mm plastic scintillator was exposed to electrons, hadrons and muons in the energy range 5–210 GeV. The measured ratios of sampling fractions are 0.8 for e/π and 0.6 for e/mip. The addition of a fine grained electromagnetic calorimeter with 1.6 mm depleted uranium plates and 4 mm plastic scintillator in front of the hadron calorimeter leads to a slightly worse hadronic energy resolution. Results on the longitudinal shower development and energy containment for hadron showers are given.
