The CMS crystal calorimeter for the LHC
The CMS crystal calorimeter, comprising about 80,000 scintillating lead tungstate crystals read out by avalanche photodiodes (in the barrel) and vacuum phototriodes (in the endcap), is designed to give excellent energy resolution in the demanding LHC environment. It is now entering the construction phase. A status report on the project is presented, including recent results from test beam verif...
متن کاملPrinciples 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 کاملThe CMS electromagnetic calorimeter
From 2007 the new CERN proton proton collider will start collisions that could open new perspectives in the fields of high energy particle physics. The CMS experiment at the LHC is in advanced construction phase. In particular new physics could be discovered thanks to the CMS precise electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) made of about 75000 scintillating PbWO 4 crystals. A description of the ECAL ...
متن کاملThe CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter Readout
CMS is a general-purpose detector designed for use in the large hadron collider (LHC) at CERN. The electromagnetic calorimeter will play an important role in electron and photon energy measurements. The benchmark process to evaluate and optimize its performance is H −→ γγ in the intermediate mass range (90 < mH < 150 GeV). For this purpose, each element of the readout chain has to be optimized....
