Results of the R&D activity on the NOE scintillating fiber calorimeter

The NOE scintillating fiber calorimeter has undergone four years of intense R&D activity. Measurements of light attenuation and time resolution have been carried out on a variety of commercially available scintillating fibers. Both these parameters are important for the optimisation of the design of the calorimeter which will be part of the ICANOE detector.
