Description

One of the photon detectors in the ALICE experiment is the fine-granularity high-resolution photon spectrometer (PHOS) composed of lead tungstate crystals. Major upgrade of the PHOS has been completed by the LHC Run2, which covers high-rate readout, advanced trigger system and charged particle veto detector. Performance of the PHOS in first pp data of Run2 will be presented. Perspectives for data taking with forthcoming pp, Pb-Pb and p-Pb collisions will be discussed.
