Abstract

Fluctuations due to binding energy losses were determined experimentally for a sampling hadron calorimeters with an active medium consisting of layers of silicon mosaics. The absorbers were uranium layers (Si/U). The calorimeter was exposed to hadrons (protons) at incoming energies of 8, 10, and 12 GeV. The contribution ( σ bind ) of the binding energy losses fluctuations to the energy resolution of this compensating hadron calorimeter was found to be σ bind ≈ 47.8%.
