Study of the CMS Combined Calorimeter Response to Low Energy Electron and Pion Beams and Pion Beams

ORAL

Abstract

We present the combined response of the CMS calorimeters to low energy charged particle beams of electrons and pions with momenta down to 2 GeV/c. The data were taken at the H2 beamline at CERN in 2006. The effects of electromagnetic calorimeter on the linearity of the combined calorimeter systems is also studied.
