The pseudorapidity region 2.5<τ<4.0 in ATLAS is a particularly
complex transition zone between the endcap and forward calorimeters.
A set-up consisting of resp. of the full azimuthal acceptance of
the ATLAS liquid argon endcap and forward calorimeters has been exposed
to beams of electrons, pions and muons in the energy range at the
CERN SPS. Data have been taken in the endcap and forward calorimeter
regions as well as in the transition region. This beam test set-up
corresponds very closely to the geometry and support structures in
ATLAS. A detailed study of the performance in the endcap and forward
calorimeter regions is described. The data are compared with MC simulations
based on GEANT 4 models.
