The electromagnetic calorimeter of the PANDA detector at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research is one of the central components to measure high-energy photons over a wide dynamic range down to a few tens of mega-electron volts. The calorimeter comprises almost 16 000 PWO-II crystals of...
