Energy Measurement Calorimetry

880.P20 Winter 2006. Richard Kass . 2. Energy Measurement (Calorimetry). A calorimeter is used to measure the energy of a charged and/or neutral particle The calorimeter should absorb all of the energy of an incident particleEnergy measurement by a calorimeter is a DESTRUCTIVE process. Original particle no longer exists after the measurement.Calorimeter usually located behind charged particle tracking chambers MWPCs, drift chambers, silicon trackers are non-destructive 224
