The SND is a non-magnetic detector deployed at the VEPP-2000 e+e− collider (BINP, Novosibirsk) for hadronic cross-section measurements in the center of mass energy range below 2 GeV. The important part of the detector is a hodoscopic electromagnetic calorimeter (EMC) with three layers of NaI(Tl) counters. EMC signal shaping and digitizing electronics based on FADC allow us to obtain both the...
New technologies have enabled the development of granular calorimeters with millions of channels. The signal of the ultra-sampled shower produced by these devices is thought to provide greater discriminating power to event reconstruction. Combining sub-nanosecond digitization with small area photosensors in a fiber calorimeter, we propose an enhancement to the traditional dual readout design...
The BM@N (Baryonic Matter at Nuclotron) is the fixed target experiment at NICA-Nuclotron (JINR, Dubna, Russia) accelerator complex. The main goal of the experiment is studying the properties of dense nuclear matter produced in ion-ion collisions. New Forward Hadron Calorimeter (FHCal) with modular structure and a beam hole in the center has been developed and constructed to measure the...
The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection (HERD) facility will be installed aboard the China's Space Station around 2025. Thanks to its innovative design, based on a large, homogeneous and isotropic calorimeter, HERD will extend the direct measurement of cosmic rays by one order of magnitude in energy. In this talk, we will describe the solution that will be used for the read-out of the about...
Modern $e^{+}e^{-}$ colliders will reach an exceedingly high level of luminosity, like SuperKEKB, Super Charm-Tau Factory (SCTF) proposed by Russia, and Super Tau-Charm Facility (STCF) proposed by China. Under such a high event rate and additional beam background, the electromagnetic calorimeter should be capable of maintaining good energy and position resolution while dealing with pile-up...
The NA61/SHINE, CBM, BM@N and MPD experiments are devoted to the study of the hot dense quark-gluon matter, which is formed in collisions of heavy nuclei. In all the mentioned experiments, forward hadron calorimeters will be used to determine the collision geometry. Due to the absence of a muon beam in the overwhelming majority of mentioned experiments, it is not possible to calibrate the...
The Mu2e calorimeter employs 1348 CsI crystals readout by SiPM and fast FE and DAQ electronics assembled in two annular disks positioned downstream the aluminum target along the beamline.
The operational conditions (radiation levels, 1 tesla magnetic field and 10^-4 Torr vacuum) have posed tight design constraints. The support structure of the two 674 crystals matrices employs two aluminum...
The purpose of the MPD experiment at NICA is to study dense baryonic matter, and the facility is now under construction. The operating energy range at the MPD is 4–11 AGeV. One of the MPD detectors is the forward hadron calorimeter (FHCal), which is designed to study the collisions geometry, primarily, the orientation of the reaction plane and the centrality of heavy ion collisions. The...
FOOT is a portable setup to measure fragmentation cross sections in beam-tissue nuclear interactions typical for hadron therapy, with fragment energies reaching 400 MeV/A. The energy will be measured by a homogeneous calorimeter using 320 BGO scintillating crystals as active material and SiPM for light-detection. A series of tests using energetic proton and Carbon beams at the CNAO facility in...
The present electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters of the CMS experiment will be upgraded to cope up with the harsh radiation environment and pileup conditions posed by the high luminosity operations of LHC (HL-LHC) expected to start in 2027. CMS has opted for a sampling calorimeter, based on silicon and scintillator technologies, with unprecedented transverse and longitudinal segmentation...
A novel high-granularity, dual-readout calorimetric technique (ADRIANO2) is under development as part of the research program of the T1604 Collaboration[1]. The building block of such a calorimeter comprises a pair of optically isolated, small tiles made of scintillating plastic and lead glass. The prompt Cerenkov light from the glass can be exploited to perform high resolution time...
The CMS electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) is a high resolution, high granularity scintillating crystal calorimeter. Improvements to the CMS ECAL energy reconstruction algorithms are required to maintain the ECAL performance in the more challenging environment of the upcoming LHC Run 3 (2021-2024). We propose to mitigate the increase in the noise, due to the ECAL barrel front-end readout...
Based on the particle-flow algorithm, a highly granular sampling hadron calorimeter (HCAL) with scintillator tiles as active layers and stainless steel as absorber is proposed to achieve an unprecedented jet energy resolution to address major challenges of precision measurements at future lepton colliders, including the Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC). A wide range of R&D efforts...
To search a dark photon A’ in the process e+ e− → A'γ, the PADME apparatus has been built at the Frascati National Laboratory of INFN. The core of PADME detector is an e.m. calorimeter to detect the signal and background photons produced in the positron annihilations on the electrons of a thin target.
The PADME calorimeter consists of two components: ECAL and SAC. ECAL is a homogeneous...
Projectile Spectator Detector (PSD) is a modular sampling hadron calorimeter used in the NA61/SHINE experiment to measure collision centrality and event plane reconstruction independently from tracking detectors. Each PSD module has longitudinal segmentation with read out by ten Hamamatsu MPPCs. A fast-analog signal from PSD modules allows selecting events with required centrality on-line at...
We report on results from the Askaryan Calorimeter Experiment (ACE) which uses the coherent microwave Cherenkov emission from high energy particle showers in dielectric-loaded waveguides as calorimetric timing layers. Above ACE's energy threshold, a single 5 cm thick (1.4 $X_0$) layer of ACE waveguides would provide ~1 ps timing, 3D spatial constraints on the scale of ~300 $\mu$m to 5 mm, and...
