dc.descriptionTwo MiniPlug calorimeters, designed to measure the energy and lateral position of particles in the (forward) pseudorapidity region of $3.6<|η|<5.2$ of the CDF detector, have been recently installed as part of the Run II CDF upgrade at the Tevatron $\bar pp$ collider. They consist of lead/liquid scintillator read out by wavelength shifting fibers arranged in a pixel-type towerless geometry suitable for `calorimetric tracking'. The design concept, the prototype performance and the final design of the MiniPlugs are here described. A recent cosmic ray test resulted in a light yield of approximately 100 pe/MIP, which exceeds our design requirements.
