Description
Two technological prototypes of high granularity calorimetry based on the scintillator option have been developed within the CALICE collaboration, including an electromagnetic calorimeter prototype (ScW-ECAL) and a hadron calorimeter prototype (AHCAL). The ScW-ECAL prototype is finely segmented with 6700 readout channels in total and consists of 32 longitudinal layers, each with scintillator strips and a copper-tungsten plate. The AHCAL prototype has been developed with totally 12960 SiPM-on-Tile units in 40 longitudinal layers. Each layer is instrumented with scintillator tiles and an iron plate. Successful beamtest campaigns for the two prototypes were successfully finished at CERN during 2022 and 2023 with beam particles in the momentum range of 1-350 GeV. This contribution will present prototype developments and results of key performance based on the beamtest data. Highlights of ongoing studies of electromagnetic and hadronic shower properties will also be included.
