Richard Polifka (University of Toronto (CA))18/05/2016, 08:30The increased particle flux at the high luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC) with instantaneous luminosities of up to $7.5$ times the original design value of $10^{34}$ cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ will have an impact on many sub-systems of the ATLAS detector. In particular, in the Liquid Argon (LAr) forward calorimeter (FCal), which was designed for operation at LHC luminosities, the associated...Go to contribution page

Eduardo Valdes Santurio (Stockholm University (SE))18/05/2016, 08:50The Tile Calorimeter (TileCal) is the hadronic calorimeter of ATLAS covering the central region of the ATLAS experiment. TileCal is a sampling calorimeter with steel as absorber and scintillators as active medium. The scintillators are read-out by wavelength shifting fibers coupled to photomultiplier tubes (PMT). The analogue signals from the PMTs are amplified, shaped and digitized by...Go to contribution page

Dr Christophe Ochando (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (FR))18/05/2016, 09:10Calorimetry at the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) faces two enormous challenges, particularly in the forward direction: radiation tolerance and unprecedented in-time event pileup. To meet these challenges, the CMS experiment has decided to construct a High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL), featuring a previously unrealized transverse and longitudinal segmentation, for both electromagnetic and...Go to contribution page

Zoltan Gecse (Fermi National Accelerator Lab. (US))18/05/2016, 09:30The High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) is the technology choice of the CMS collaboration for the endcap calorimetry upgrade planned to cope with the harsh radiation and pileup environment at the High Luminosity-LHC. The HGCAL is realized as a sampling calorimeter, including an electromagnetic compartment comprising 28 layers of silicon pad detectors with pad areas of 0.5 — 1.0 cm^2...Go to contribution page

Simone Pigazzini (Universita & INFN, Milano-Bicocca (IT). On behalf of the CMS collaboration)18/05/2016, 10:20The electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Experiment is made of about 75000 scintillating lead tungstate crystals arranged in a barrel and two endcaps. The single-channel time resolution of ECAL measured at beam tests and for high energy showers from LHC Run I is better than 100 ps. For the high luminosity phase of the LHC (HL-LHC) we expect an average of 140...Go to contribution page

Jean-Baptiste Sauvan (CERN)18/05/2016, 10:40The CMS experiment has chosen a novel high granularity calorimeter for the forward region as part of its planned upgrade for the high luminosity LHC. The calorimeter will have fine segmentation in both the transverse and longitudinal directions and will be the first such calorimeter specifically optimised for particle flow reconstruction to operate at a colliding beam experiment. The...Go to contribution page

Steffen Starz (CERN)18/05/2016, 11:00The upgrade of the LHC will provide up to 7.5 times greater instantaneous and total luminosities than assumed in the original design of the ATLAS Liquid Argon (LAr) Calorimeters. Radiation tolerance criteria and an improved trigger system with higher acceptance rate and longer latency require an upgrade of the LAr readout electronics. In the first upgrade phase in 2019-2020, a trigger-readout...Go to contribution page

Frank Chlebana (Fermi National Accelerator Lab. (US))The challenges of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) are driven by the large number of overlapping proton-proton collisions (pileup) in each bunch-crossing and the extreme radiation dose to detectors positioned at high pseudorapidity. To overcome this challenge CMS is designing and implementing an endcap electromagnetic+hadronic sampling calorimeter employing silicon pad devices in the...Go to contribution page

Nural Akchurin (Texas Tech University (US))The High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) is the technology choice of the CMS collaboration for the endcap calorimetry upgrade planned to cope with the harsh radiation and pileup environment at the High Luminosity-LHC and to optimally reconstruct physics objects such as electrons, photons and jets. In this context, profiting from fast-timing information (~tens of picoseconds) embedded in the...Go to contribution page

Ana Maria Henriques Correia (CERN)The particles produced at the future hadron Circular Collider (FCC-hh) with √ s = 100 TeV are of unprecedented energies. We present preliminary studies that motivate a 12 λ calorimeter in order to contain at 98% level TeV single hadron showers and multi-TeV jets and keep a needed pion energy resolution constant term of 3%, the dominant contribution to the total energy resolution at the TeV...Go to contribution page
