50. Detector requirements for future high-energy collider experiments

Eva Sicking (CERN)

27/01/2020, 14:00

Particle detectors for operation at future high-energy collider experiments are designed in view of both their facilities' physics objectives and their experimental conditions, which differ substantially between lepton and hadron colliders as well as between linear and circular colliders. Example differences are background conditions and duty cycles at these colliders, which for instance...

54. A Practical Introduction to Particle Tracking

Moritz Kiehn (Universite de Geneve (CH))

KF, CKF, GBL, MillePede, and it goes on ... . Do you feel a bit lost in all the acronyms? Not sure what it all means? Fear not, this handy introduction will safely guide you through the world of particle tracking.

Tracking detectors are at the core of most particle physics experiments. Consequently, efficient and precise particle tracking becomes an important step during reconstruction....

49. Gamma-ray calorimetry in Nuclear Physics experiments

Pablo Cabanelas Eiras, Pablo Cabanelas Eiras

Sometimes we forget about the importance of knowing well some basic principles in Physics, like the gamma-ray interaction and detection. And gamma-ray detection is a key factor in Nuclear Physics experiments, since most of the nuclear excited states produced in a nuclear reaction decay fast with gamma emission, and emitted photons can have energies from a few keV up to tens to MeV. Thus, it is...

55. Timing and synchronisation in HEP

Jeroen Hegeman (CERN)

27/01/2020, 16:45

This presentation will give an introduction to the concepts of timing and synchronisation in particle physics experiments. The next generation of (HL-)LHC experiments will require precise timing information to augment the 3D spatial particle measurements in order to resolve interesting collisions from background events. A brief overview will be presented of current HEP experiment timing...
