ADRIANO2 Calorimeter performance from 2022 Prototypes
A novel high-granularity dual-readout calorimetric technique was developed as part of the T1604 collaboration research program. The building block of ADRIANO2 Calorimeter consists of a pair of optically isolated, small sized tiles made of scintillating plastic and lead glass. The two components of the dual-readout energy compensation technique. Furthermore,Cˇerenkovlightfromtheleadglassareexploitedtoforhighresolutiontimingmeasurements,whilehigh granularity from scintillating plastic can be used to probe the spatial component of the particle shower. This setup works for excellent energy resolution and particle identification for REDTOP as it is crucial for a calorimeter to detect and identify the decay products of eta/eta-prime mesons. Measurements were collected on several ADRIANO2 prototypes between February to December 2022 to evaluate the detector performance. The key metrics extracted from the analyses are presented in this paper are the efficiencies and light-yi eld for various tile configurations. The measured values will be used as input parameters for improved REDTOP Montecarlo simulation.
