Abstract: 
The detector system TAPS (Two/Three Arm Photon Spectrometer) has been designed and installed to study high energy photons as well neutral mesons produced in relativistic heavy ion reactions. The spectrometer will consist of up to 384 individual BaF2-modules packed in arrays of 64 scintillators. Each spectrometer arm, which carries two detector blocks, can be moved around the target location independently. The design concept, the specifications of the individual scintillator and test results of sub-arrays performed with monochromatic photons and charged particles will be presented. First experiments at GANIL and SIS (GSI, Darmstadt) have been performed exploiting heavy ion beams up to a projectile energy of 1GeV/u.
