【 摘 要 】

An arrangement of the GAMMA-400 space gamma-ray telescope that currently is under the ground testing, suggests implementation of fast two-layer calorimeter scintillation detector system S3 with large dynamic range for electromagnetic showers detection in the main operation mode of the device. The S3 constructive features are demonstrated. The experimental method and basic diagram of the ground prototype dynamic range investigation are described.
