نویسنده
چکیده
A Semi-Digital Hadronic Calorimeter using Glass Resistive Plate Chambers (GRPCs) is one of the calorimeters candidates proposed for particle physics experiments at the future electrons collider. It is a high granular calorimeter which is required for application of the particle flow algorithm in order to improve the jet energy resolution to achieve 30%= ffiffiffi E p as one of the goals of these experiments. & 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Development of MicroMegas for a Digital Hadronic Calorimeter
Future particle physics experiments at the International Linear Collider (ILC) [1] will employ the Particle Flow Algorithm (PFA). In order to achieve an optimal PFA performance, a highly granular hadronic calorimeter with a good shower separation is required. One of the suitable and affordable choice for an active part of the hadronic calorimeter is a thin gaseous detector with embedded digital...

متن کاملThe CALICE hadron calorimeters - test beam results
We present concepts and beam test results of highly granular calorimeter prototypes optimized for the application of particle flow algorithms. A scintillator-steel hadron calorimeter using SiPMs as photodetectors (AHCAL) has been tested in electron and hadron beams at CERN and Fermilab in the energy range 1 – 80 GeV. More than 7600 SiPMs – the highest number ever used – performed well over the ...
متن کاملAnalyses of test beam data using the CALICE calorimeter
We discuss several features of hadronic showers recorded in the high granularity CALICE Si-W ECAL and scintillator-tile HCAL and confront them with several Geant4 physics models. The first measurements of the time-structure of hadronic showers in a tungsten scintillator calorimeter are presented. The high granularity of the CALICE calorimeters allows a software compensation which improves the e...
متن کاملTrack Segments in Hadronic Showers: Calibration Possibilities for a Highly Granular HCAL
The CALICE collaboration has constructed a highly granular hadronic calorimeter based on small scintillator tiles read out with silicon photomultipliers. With this detector, data was taken at CERN and at Fermilab. The high granularity of the detector allows the identification of minimum-ionizing track segments within hadronic showers, demonstrating the imaging capabilities of particle flow calo...
