Description
Summary:The technology for large-scale processing of lead tungstate crystals intended for investigations in the field of high-energy physics is implemented with the use of the processing equipment at the North Crystals Company. The quality of the PWO scintillators manufactured by the company satisfies the requirements of the ALICE and CMS experiments at CERN. More than 8000 scintillators for the ALICE project and the pilot batch of scintillators for the CMS project have been fabricated.
