Abstract
The response function of a 3 x 3 matrix of 200-mm-long PWO-II crystals has been measured with energy-marked photons up to 675 MeV energy. For the first time the crystals were readout individually with one large area avalanche photo diode of the second generation operating at a temperature of 0 degrees C. The reconstructed electromagnetic shower distributions show excellent energy resolutions down to 40 MeV. Reducing the temperature and increasing the light collection by an additional large-area avalanche photo diode can achieve further improvement.
