Specifications for Lead Tungstate Crystals Preproduction
نویسنده
چکیده
After 3 years of extensive R&D the Bogoroditsk Techno-Chemical Plant in Russia is ready to enter a preproduction phase where 6000 Lead Tungstate crystals will be produced for the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter during a period of about 18 months. Although this is a demonstration test for the mass production, these crystals will have to be installed in the calorimeter and have therefore to comply with the very severe constraints imposed by the ambitious performance goal of the calorimeter in the high radiation environment of LHC. This paper describes and justifies the specifications for these preproduction crystals.

متن کاملMeasurements of Lead Tungstate crystals behaviour under irradiation for the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter at the LHC
Lead Tungstate crystals will be used as calorimetric medium in high energy physics at CERN, in a particularly hostile radiation environment. Methods of testing their behaviour under irradiation are discussed here and are illustrated by some R&D results. Presented at 5th European Conference on Radiation and its Effects on Components and Systems, (Fontevraud, France, September 1999) For the CMS C...
