      SM18 Magnet Test Bench A1 | EcosimPro Simulation | Shuffling module oscillation problem 20m

      The magnet bench test A1 of the SM18 test facilities with the installation of the new magnet MQXF, created an oscillation problem on the level of liquid helium inside the magnet. This problem is making the test of the magnet impossible to realize.

      Development of high-density signal feedthroughs for liquid argon calorimeters 30m

      The next generation of calorimeters for collider experiments will have to feature at the same time high granularity, very good energy resolution and a strong control over the systematic uncertainties and acceptance. Noble Liquid Calorimetry is a very promising candidate to meet these requirements. The higher read-out granularity of future noble-liquid calorimeters leads to a strong increase in the number of read-out channels and, consequently, to the need for high-density signal feedthroughs that ensure the passage of the signals from the cold calorimeter to the warm electronics outside. In order to achieve a high density of signal wires, the use of connectors on each side of the flange should be avoided. R&D on a new high-density feedthrough flange is ongoing at the Cryolab.
