The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is undergoing an extensive Phase II upgrade program to prepare for the challenging conditions of the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC). In particular, precision timing can offset the performance degradation due to event pileup at the HL-LHC, recovering the purity of vertices of current LHC conditions. As such, a new...

dimension, each one readout by two large area SiPM arrays. We translated the calorimeter requirements in a series of technical specifications for the SiPMs that are summarized by the following list:
(1) a high gain, above 10^6, for each monolithic (6× 6) mm$^2$ SiPM... -

Electromagnetic calorimeter (Ecal) is an important part of the Multi Purpose Detector (MPD) at the NICA collider. A shashlik-type electromagnetic calorimeter is selected as MPD ECal. The particular goals of the MPD ECal are to measure of spatial positions and energy of photons and electrons. Therefore, the energy resolution of the detector is the most important performance. The light yield is...

The baseline calorimeter configuration consists of 1348 undoped CsI crystals coupled to 2 large area UV-extended Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) and divided in two annular disks.

An intense R\&D program has been pursued in order to control if this configuration satisfies the Mu2e requirements.
In May 2017, a dedicated test has been performed at the Beam Test Facility (BTF) in Frascati... -

Circular Electron Position Collider (CEPC) is proposed as a Higgs or Z factory. One option of CEPC-ECAL(Electromagnetic calorimeter), designed based on the Particles Flow Algorithm(PFA), consists of tungsten and scintillator coupling with SiPM as active sensor. A advanced study of the gain with single photon and the responding curve of SiPM will be presented. Scintillator module also had been...
