Abstract

The Spaghetti Calorimeter is becoming a better and better candidate for calorimetry in the future supercolliders. Using R&D results obtained by the SpaCal group at CERN, I am attempting a partial review of some Spaghetti Calorimeter prospects and capabilities. This report is focussed principally on trigger and data acquisition topics. The Spaghetti Calorimeter will be capable of producing very high quality data in the supercolliders.

Also presented in a preliminary version at the 9th Workshop of the INFN ELOISATRON Project on “Perspectives for new detectors in Future Supercolliders”, Erice, Italy, 17–24 October 1989.
