Abstract :
We report on the design and on beam test results of a liquid scintillator/lead prototype calorimeter. The detector was proposed as one of the options for the forward region of an experiment at the future large hadron collider (LHC) at CERN. The measurements were performed with electron and pion beams of the CERN SPS in the energy range from 20 to 150 GeV. The response as a function of the beam impact point and of the incidence angle is studied with and without a passive preradiator in front of the calorimeter modules.
