Abstract

A high resolution electromagnetic calorimeter has been proposed as one of the major detector components of the future PANDA detector at FAIR The homogeneous calorimeter is based on high quality PWO-II scintillator crystals operated at a temperature of T=-25degC and readout via large area avalanche photo diodes. The paper summarizes the status of the detector performance, radiation hardness and the present layout of the whole target calorimeter.
