Abstract

The cylindrical electromagnetic calorimeter of the MPD experiment being built within the framework of the NICA project, is assembled from 50 half-sectors, each contains 768 ‘‘shashlyk’’-type towers of different sizes and various spatial orientations. Methods for calibrating individual half-sectors with cosmic-ray muons under test-bench conditions are currently being developed. This article discusses the applicability of these methods to a fully assembled calorimeter ready for experiments on a heavy ion collider.
