    MPPC is the new type photon sensor of semiconductor, which is under development with Hamamatu Photonics company. It consits of handreds of small pixels in a sensor. Each pixel acts as a digital device to a photon. The MPPC is supposed to be used plastic scintillator calorimeter with Tungsten absorber. The development situation is reported.

    We have studied the performance of the CMS hadron calorimeter using the testbeam facilities at CERN. Two wedges of brass-scintillator calorimeter are exposed to negative and positive beams with momenta between 3 and 300 GeV/c. Light produced in the scintillators were collected using wavelength shifting fibres and read out using Hybrid photodiodes. Each of the wedges had 17 layers of...

    Abstract A specific research and development program has been carried out in India to develop the technology for 32-strip silicon detectors for application as a preshower detector for CMS experiment at LHC, CERN. The detectors have a geometry of 63mm x 63mm and these detectors incorporate 32 P+strips with width of 1.78 mm with a pitch of 1.9 mm. The fabrication technology to...

    India-based Neutrino Observatory (INO) collaboration is proposing a large magnetized iron tracking calorimeter of total weight 50 kton, using atmospheric neutrinos as source. The proposed detector will have a modular structure of lateral size 48 m16 m and will consist of a stack of 140 layers of 6cm thick iron plates interleaved with Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) detector layers. A total...

    I will describe simulation studies of GLD scintillator-based calorimeter. This talk contains two parts: the first is pi0 reconstruction with scintillator-strip ECAL, and the second is a study of digital HCAL performance. Preliminary results of these studies will be presented in my talk.

    A set of 4 ILC Muon prototype modules, each 1.25m x 2.5m with 64 diagonal scintillator strips has been assembled and set up in the Fermilab test beam. Two of the modules have readouts and one end of the scintillators and two of the modules have readouts at both ends of the strips. Studies of the pulse shapes and preliminary results of the beam tests will be presented.

    We describe a completely new way to reconstruct and identify muons with high efficiency and very high pion rejection in the 4th Concept detector. The air-volume dual-solenoid magnetic field allows the reconstruction and precision momentum measurement down to a few GeV (just the energy loss in the 10-interaction-length calorimeter and the coil) and the dual-readout calorimeter provides a...

    This talk describes a calorimeter concept that will use cherenkov radiator plates to partially replace the metal plates in a conventional ILC hadron calorimeter design. The cherekov radiator will have fine segmentations and will be readout by SiPMs. Energy and spatial information of the electromagnetic components in hadron showers can be measured. Combined with information from thin...

    We report the findings of a study on the efficiency and purity of muon identification for the proposed SiD detector geometry. The study is based on simulated b-pair events that include a muon in the decay chain. The aim of the study was to assess the use of the highly segmented proposed hadron calorimeter in the b identification process. The study shows that the efficiency and purity of...

    The design and expected performance of tungsten - silicon "nose cone" calorimeters for the upgrade of the Phenix experiment at BNL will be described. The calorimeters will provide precision measurements of individual electromagnetic showers, aid in gamma / pi0 / eta / hadron identification, and aid in jet finding, jet energy, and impact position measurements. Two photon separation is...
