Abstract :
Dual-Readout calorimetry is a promising new technique for high-precision measurements of hadronic showers and jets. The DREAM Collaboration is exploring the limits of the possibilities offered by this technique, by systematically eliminating the limiting factors, one after the other. Powerful tools in this context are the simultaneous measurement of the scintillation light and the Cherenkov light generated in the shower development and a detailed measurement of the time structure of the signals. In this paper, the latest results of this generic detector R&D project are presented.
