In 1994, extensive tests were carried out to evaluate shashlik prototype calorimeter as
a candidate for the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) for the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS)
detector. The measured energy resolution is characterized by a stochastic term of 8.5% / ÖE, a noise term of 0.33/ E and a constant term of 0.5 % (E in
GeV). Reproducibility of performance of the towers and the uniformity of the calorimeter
response have been studied across a large 25 cm × 25 cm area. Effects of radiation damage
on the shashlik tower have also been studied.
