The 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 کاملCALICE ScECAL Beam Test at Fermilab
The scintillator-strip electromagnetic calorimeter (ScECAL) is one of the calorimeter technologies which can achieve fine granularity required for the particle flow algorithm. Second prototype of the ScECAL has been built and tested with analog hadron calorimeter (AHCAL) and tail catcher (TCMT) in September 2008 at Fermilab meson test beam facility. Data are taken with 1 to 32 GeV of electron, ...
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 کاملThe Tail-Catcher/Muon Tracker for the CALICE Test Beam
The CALICE (CAlorimeter for the Linear Collider with Electrons) collaboration [1] plans to examine several technology and geometry options for electromagnetic and hadronic calorimetry at the proposed International Linear Collider. Since in many geometries the total material thickness of the calorimeter is too little to fully contain highly energetic hadronic showers, it is important to gain a g...
متن کاملStatus of the CALICE DAQ system
A data acquisition (DAQ) system is described which will be used for the next generation of prototype calorimeters using particle flow algorithms for the International Linear Collider (ILC). The design is sufficiently generic and scalable such that it should have numerous applications either for ILC detectors or elsewhere within high energy physics in general. The DAQ system will be implemented ...
