The 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 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 کاملCalice Electromagnetic Calorimeter Readout Status
The CALICE Electromagnetic CALorimeter (ECAL) will be a silicon-tungsten sampling calorimeter [1] with 30 layers of silicon wafers, each containing an 18×18 array of diode pads, giving 9720 channels to be read out. The signal from each pad is amplified by a Very Front End (VFE) ASIC [2] which multiplexes the signals from 18 pads onto one output line. The silicon wafers and VFE chips are mounted...
متن کاملCMS Calorimeter Trigger/Readout Electronics for SLHC
The SLHC will be a very challenging environment for physics and for the trigger and DAQ in particular. Expected pileup multiplicies on the level of 40-200 interactions every beam crossing will flood the detector with the “ambient noise” of many low pT particles. The impact of these low pT particles is particular large for the hadron calorimeter, which has a relatively large cell size (compared ...
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...
