The 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....
متن کاملOverview of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter
This article presents an overview of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment. This detector will be installed in the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) in 2005. This paper describes the characteristics of this homogeneous calorimeter made with PbWO4 scintillating crystals read out with avalanche photodiodes (barrel) and vacuum phototriodes (endcaps). This calorime...
متن کاملThe CMS Lead Tungstate Electromagnetic Calorimeter
The CERN LHC will open a new regime in the exploration of fundamental interactions. Of central importance to these studies will be the precise measurement of high energy electrons and photons. The CMS experiment therefore incorporates a high resolution electromagnetic calorimeter comprising 76000 lead tungstate crystals, covering almost 4pi, and capable of operating reliably for ten years in a ...
متن کاملDijet Mass Resolution of the CMS Calorimeter
We have investigated the jet resolution of the CMS calorimeter using the CMSIM GEANT simulation. Dijet decays of Z and Z 0 (mZ0 = 1 TeV) bosons were used as a benchmark process. 1 Simulation of the Calorimeter The calorimeter was simlated using GEANT3 within the framework of the CMS general simulation program CMSIM (version 111). The electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) consisted of 23 cm PbWO4 c...
