The calibration results are presented for a scintillation hodoscopic spectrometer of charged particles, which has been designed for an experiment on the search for a heavy electron on the bremsstrahlung photon beam at the Pakhra accelerator of the LPI. The relative energy and coordinate resolutions of the spectrometer at electron energy E = 40 MeV are δ = 22% and σ x = 9.5 mm, respectively. It has been determined that the width of electromagnetic showers in the transverse direction can be described by the energy dependences Δ ~ lnE at E < 100 MeV and Δ ~ 1/expE at E > 100 MeV.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
