Description

We propose to use an electromagnetic calorimeter based on scintillating crystals to record both Cherenkov and scintillation light at the FCC-ee. Together with a dual-readout hadronic calorimeter, it will allow precise energy measurements of electrons, photons, and jets. In this talk, I'll report the first measurements that utilize PbF2 (non-scintillating crystals) to understand the collection of Cherenkov light, as a first step to study the dual-readout implementation of an electromagnetic calorimeter system.
