CMS Induction Session for Newcomers

8 Jul 2015, 13:00 → 10 Jul 2015, 18:00 Europe/Zurich

503/1-001 - Council Chamber (CERN)

Basic concept is to have three half-day sessions for newcomers and oldcomers - both students and more experienced people. Two of the three sessions will be overview talks/discussions; the third is a visit to the P5 site. Main presenters and discussion leaders should be the CMS Management, Subsystem Managers and Coordinators. Presentations should be simple, focus on CMS-specifics and include pointers to more information. VIDYO PIN is 1234

Wednesday, 8 July

13:55 → 14:40 Introduction

Overview of CMS objectives, “CMS detector design drivers” and “major decisions”, present detector - including magnet, results so far. Also include management structure (systems, coordination areas), role of the CB, decision-making process, long-term plan (including upgrades in Phase I and Phase II). Brief intro to LHC operations inc. lumi measurements and safety aspects (BRiL)

14:45 → 15:30 Tracking

Overview of particle tracking using the pixels + tracker + muon detectors, including descriptions of each detector, alignment loop, project organizations, people. Needs input from AlCa, TK/MUON POG. Example results of performance - vertex location precision, pT resolution, 2-track separation, muon id efficiency, muon trigger efficiency etc. as functions of pileup (# vertices). Longevity & upgrades.
