Abstract
The radiation hardness of prototype CsI(Tl) crystals has been tested for the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter for the BELLE detector of the KEK B factory. Although samples made by one of the producers were found to be soft under irradiation, the problem was quickly improved when this information was fed back. All the tested crystals were found to meet our requirement.
ght output was found to be almost uniform along a crystal, even when the front part was damaged by radiation. The damage causes a degradation of the attenuation length due to the formation of color centers; this conclusion was confirmed by a Monte Carlo ray-tracing study.
