The DRD Calo collaboration is formed by a large community of calorimeter experts, who are proposing, developing and testing several different techniques aiming at future experiments, following the European Strategy recommendation roadmap. Since the formation of the collaboration a coordinated effort for testbeam data taking is ongoing in several facilities around the world. Progress in the...

Abstract: Lepton colliders, such as FCC-ee and a multi-TeV muon collider, have been proposed as possible options to investigate the Standard Model (SM) after the HL-LHC. In this context, calorimeters at future experimental facilities will require excellent energy resolution to effectively differentiate between hadronic decays of W and Z bosons, good granularity at the $O(1\ \mathrm{cm}^2)$...

Several configurations of a highly compact electromagnetic sampling calorimeter prototype, developed for future Higgs factories and strong-field QED experiments, were tested at the DESY-II testbeam facility. The prototype comprises flat tungsten absorber plates interspersed with 320-µm thick silicon sensor planes. Each 9×9 cm2 sensor is segmented into 256 readout pads. The sensors are glued to...

Talk

The Light Dark Matter eXperiment (LDMX) is a fixed-target search for thermal relic light dark matter. The LDMX hadronic calorimeter (HCal) is primarily designed to act as a highly efficient veto detector for few-GeV neutral hadrons produced in photo-nuclear background reactions, which is necessary for sensitivity to models with invisible missing momentum and missing energy signatures. For...

During the Long Shutdown 3 that will take place in years 2026 - 2030, a comprehensive upgrade of the ATLAS Tile Calorimeter system is planned to meet the challenges of a 1 MHz trigger rate, higher ambient radiation levels, and increased pile-up conditions. This upgrade involves a complete replacement of both on- and off-detector electronics, along with the replacement of approximately 10% of...

Talk

Prototype of a highly compact electromagnetic sampling calorimeter dedicated to positron flux measurement at the LUXE experiment, was tested at the DESY-II testbeam facility. The prototype was built of tungsten plates of 1 Xo (3.5 mm) instrumented with thin silicon sensors segmented into 5.5×5.5 mm2 readout pads. Presented in this contribution is the novel alignment method which allows to...
