Abstract

We describe the calibration measurements of the MEGA prototype, a tracking Compton and pair creation telescope. The measurements were performed at the high intensity gamma-ray source (HIγS) facility from April 21 to May 06, 2003. The main goal of this calibration was directed at higher energies, above those available from radioactive lab sources, and at polarization. A total of 15.5×10 6 triggered events at 10 energies in the range of 0.7–49 MeV and at six angles of incidence (0°–180°) were recorded.
