69. Evolution and Performance of Highly Granular Calorimeters

Frank Simon (Max-Planck-Institut fuer Physik)

22/05/2018, 15:45

Highly granular “imaging” calorimeters, developed by the CALICE collaboration, have evolved from a conceptual idea to a well-proven technology over the last decade. Initially proposed for the detector concepts of future linear electron-positron colliders, such devices are now finding an increasing number of applications in other areas of particle physics as well. This presentation will review...

36. Fine-grained calorimeters for experiments at CLIC and FCC-ee

Oleksandr Viazlo (CERN)

22/05/2018, 16:10

We present optimisation studies for detectors being designed for future e+e- colliders such as CLIC and FCC-ee, using particle-flow calorimetry. Surrounding a large silicon tracker volume, a very fine-grained ECAL is envisaged, with 40 Si-W layers and a lateral segmentation of 5x5 mm2. Beyond the ECAL, a steel-scintillator HCAL is placed, with 60 layers (for CLIC) or 44 layers (for FCC-ee) and...

72. Overall Status of the CMS High Granularity Calorimeter

Nural Akchurin (Texas Tech University (US))

The endcap calorimeters of CMS will be replaced, during LHC long shutdown 3 (~2024-2025), with the High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL). Hexagonal silicon sensors will be used in the high radiation regions, complemented by scintillator tiles with on-tile SiPMs in the less harsh regions. Through an extensive R&D campaign in the past two years, the design of the HGCAL has converged, with many...

77. SiD silicon tungsten ECAL for ILC

Martin Breidenbach (SLAC)

22/05/2018, 17:00

We present an update on the status of the SiD silicon-tungsten ECAL development effort. The calorimeter design consists of thirty layers of silicon sampling embedded in a stack of tungsten plates. The first twenty tungsten plates are 2.5 mm thick followed by ten 5.0 mm thick plates. The six-inch silicon sensors contain 1,024 channels, with nominal pixel cross sections of 13 mm^2, and are read...
