Modern e+e− factories with high luminosity require fast response time of the detector subsystems to collect the data efficiently and suppress severe beam background. The prototype of the electromagnetic calorimeter based on the counter made of pure CsI crystal, novel wavelength shifter with nanostructured organosilicon luminophores and avalanche photodiodes Hamamatsu S8664-55 is discussed. Results of the measurement of the basic characteristics of the counter are presented.

Interest in a comprehensive study of lead tungstate single crystals is due to its scintillation properties [1-5]. It was found that lead tungstate occupies an exceptional position in the family of tungstates with a scheelite structure. Lead tungstate single crystal is a scintillation material [1] used in the LHC electromagnetic calorimeter and photon detector in the ALICE experiment at CERN [1, 2]. Now it can be said unequivocally that lead tungstate is the most promising scintillation material in the next decade.

Abstract The production cross section of inclusive isolated photons has been measured by the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC in pp collisions at a centre-of-momentum energy of $$\sqrt{s}=$$s= 7 TeV. The measurement is performed with the electromagnetic calorimeter EMCal and the central tracking detectors, covering a range of $$|\eta |<0.27$$|η|<0.27 in pseudorapidity and a transverse momentum range of $$ 10< p_\mathrm {T}^{\gamma }< 60~\mathrm {GeV}/c$$10<pTγ<60GeV/c. The result extends the $$p_\mathrm {T}$$pT coverage of previously published results of the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the same collision energy to smaller $$p_\mathrm {T}$$pT. The measurement is compared to next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations and to the results from the ATLAS and CMS experiments. All measurements and theory predictions are in agreement with each other.
