Trapping in irradiated p-on-n silicon sensors at fluences anticipated at the HL-LHC outer tracker
W. Adam, T. Bergauer, M. Dragicevic +682
The degradation of signal in silicon sensors is studied under conditions expected at the CERN High-Luminosity LHC. 200 m thick n-type silicon sensors are irradiated with proton…
Test Beam Performance Measurements for the Phase I Upgrade of the CMS Pixel Detector
M. Dragicevic, M. Friedl, J. Hrubec +481
A new pixel detector for the CMS experiment was built in order to cope with the instantaneous luminosities anticipated for the Phase~I Upgrade of the LHC. The new CMS pixel detecto…
DHCAL with Minimal Absorber: Measurements with Positrons
The CALICE Collaboration, B. Freund, C. Neubüser +99
In special tests, the active layers of the CALICE Digital Hadron Calorimeter prototype, the DHCAL, were exposed to low energy particle beams, without being interleaved by absorber…
Particle Identification Using Boosted Decision Trees in the Semi-Digital Hadronic Calorimeter Prototype
D. Boumediene, A. Pingault, M. Tytgat +87
The CALICE Semi-Digital Hadronic CALorimeter (SDHCAL) prototype using Glass Resistive Plate Chambers as a sensitive medium is the first technological prototype of a family of high-…
Measurements of the Rate Capability of Various Resistive Plate Chambers
M. Affatigato, U. Akgun, B. Bilki +7
Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) exhibit a significant loss of efficiency for the detection of particles, when subjected to high particle fluxes. This rate limitation is related to…
Tests of a Novel Design of Resistive Plate Chambers
B. Bilki, F. Corriveau, B. Freund +5
A novel design of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs), using only a single resistive plate, is being proposed. Based on this design, two large size prototype chambers were constructed…
Analysis of Testbeam Data of the Highly Granular RPC-Steel CALICE Digital Hadron Calorimeter and Validation of Geant4 Monte Carlo Models
CALICE Collaboration, M. Chefdeville, J. Repond +93
We present a study of the response of the highly granular Digital Hadronic Calorimeter with steel absorbers, the Fe-DHCAL, to positrons, muons, and pions with momenta ranging from…
