Hello all,

I would like to submit the following abstract for a poster about the EMCal test beam analysis to Quark Matter 2017.  Comments and suggestions are appreciated.

The sPHENIX detector is a proposed new detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC).   The sPHENIX detector will measure properties of quark gluon plasma (QGP) through the study of jets and hard probes. The electromagnetic calorimeter (EMCal) consists of tungsten powder and epoxy blocks with embedded scintillating fibers.  It is designed to have a small Molière radius and short radiation length. A prototype EMCal consisting of an 8 by 8 array of towers was tested at Fermilab in April 2016.  This poster will present the analysis and results of this test beam and future plans. 

Best,
Virginia
