Principles of the cutting method proposed for the PbWO4 crystals of the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter
A method for cutting the 110’000 PbWO4 crystals of the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter is proposed. The machinery, the tooling and the sequence of operation are described. Processing parameters resulting from experimental runs are indicated. A mass production organisation is forecasted. CMS Note 1997/024 01 04 1997 M. Lebeau 2
متن کاملRadiation hardness qualification of PbWO4 scintillation crystals for the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter
Ensuring the radiation hardness of PbWO4 crystals was one of the main priorities during the construction of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at CERN. The production on an industrial scale of radiation hard crystals and their certification over a period of several years represented a difficult challenge both for CMS and for the crystal suppliers. The present article reviews ...
متن کاملCALICE Si/W electromagnetic calorimeter prototype, first testbeam results
A highly granular electromagnetic calorimeter prototype based on tungsten absorber and sampling units equipped with silicon pads as sensitive devices for signal collection is under construction. The full prototype will have in total 30 layers and be read out by about 10000 Si cells of 1 × 1 cm. A first module consisting of 14 layers and depth of 7.2 X0 at normal incidence, having in total 3024 ...
متن کاملHigh-energy proton induced damage in PbWO4 calorimeter crystals
Eight production quality PbWO4 crystals of CMS have been irradiated in a 20 GeV/c proton beam up to fluences of 5.4×1013 cm. The damage recovery in these crystals has been followed for over a year. Comparative irradiations with Co photons have been performed on seven other crystals using a dose rate of 1 kGy/h. In proton irradiated crystals the light transmission band-edge shifts and the induce...
متن کاملRefinement of the T466 Prototype Tungsten/Scintillating Fiber Electromagnetic Calorimeter
In April 2003, UCLA researchers conducted test run T466 at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center with their newly designed electromagnetic calorimeter towers composed of tungsten powder and scintillating fibers. The prototype’s energy resolution, uniformity of response, and linearity were measured using an electron beam with a momentum of up to 10 GeV. The measured energy resolution was 17%/ √...
