The ALICE experiment aims to reveal a new phase of matter called Quark-Gluon Plasma produced by high-energy heavy-ion collisions at the LHC. PHOS is a high-granularity and high-energy resolution electromagnetic calorimeter composed of more than 10,000 lead-tungstate (PWO) crystals attached with avalanche photodiodes (Hamamatsu S8664-55) to achieve the best energy resolution of σ/E = 3.5% (at...

We will present our ongoing study of performance for particle identification at the sPHENIX project using a Geant4 simulation. The sPHENIX is the planned/anticipated upgrade of the PHENIX detector at RHIC. The physics programs of sPHENIX primarily aim at jets and heavy flavors. The program can be much enhanced with the preshower that provides separation of single photons from double photons...

The ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) is a general purpose experiment dedicated to the study of heavy ion collisions at the LHC. The main goal of the ALICE-ITS (Inner Tracking System) upgrade project is to improve the vertexing and the tracking capabilities at low pT according to projected luminosity at LHC. The new ITS is, therefore, based on the latest silicon pixel technology and...
