Abstract

An instrument referred to as a "total absorption spectrometer" (of area 1.4 m2 and solid angle = 0.25 steradians) has been constructed for measuring the energies of nuclear interacting particles of the cosmic radiation in the energy range of a new GeV to a few hundred GeV. The general features of the design, construction and the procedure used for calibration are discussed as also the factors which govern the accuracy (≈ 20%) of energy measurement.
