New Strangelet Signature and Its Relevance to the CASTOR Calorimeter
214 octants. Each octant is longitudinally segmented into 80 layers, the first 8 (~ 14.7 Xo) comprising the electromagnetic section and the remaining 72 (~ 9.47 A/) the hadronic section. The light output from groups of 4 consecutive active layers is coupled into the same light guide, giving a total of 20 readout channels along each octant.

The outer plates (one omitted for clarity) constitute the support for the light guides and photomultip- liers.
