The data from test beams were analysed. The first priority was to investigate the
calorimeter response to pions. We also treated with linearity, homogeneity, energy
resolution and other importatnt characteristics. A method of energy reconstruction using
topolgy of hadronic shower had been also proposed and now it is under developement.
In the Fig. 3 the ATLAS calorimetry spacing is shown.
and in the Fig. 4 the angle region for ATLAS calorimetry is shown.
Very important task for calorimeter calibration is cluster classsification. We proposed a
method for cluster classification using some topological characteristics (moments) of the
cluster. The result is shown in the Fig. 5.

computed from the calibration signal.

Figure 5:
Example of some topological moments as a function of EM component of deposited energy. In
the last plot is our estimation of this component (calculated using the above mentioned
characteristic) vs. MC truth.
