R&D towards the CMS RPC Phase-2 upgrade
A. Fagot, A. Cimmino, S. Crucy +93
The high pseudo-rapidity region of the CMS muon system is covered by Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC) only and lacks redundant coverage despite the fact that it is a challenging region…
Radiation Tests of Real-Sized Prototype RPCs for the Future CMS RPC Upscope
K. S. Lee, S. Choi, B. S. Hong +93
We report on a systematic study of double-gap and four-gap phenolic resistive plate chambers (RPCs) for future high-η RPC triggers in the CMS. In the present study, we constructed…
High rate, fast timing Glass RPC for the high η CMS muon detectors
F. Lagarde, M. Gouzevitch, I. Laktineh +108
The HL-LHC phase is designed to increase by an order of magnitude the amount of data to be collected by the LHC experiments. To achieve this goal in a reasonable time scale the ins…
Observation of the rare decay from the combined analysis of CMS and LHCb data
The CMS, LHCb Collaborations, : +2807
A joint measurement is presented of the branching fractions and in proton-proton collisions at the LHC by the CMS and LHCb experiments. The data…
Efficiency measurements of GEM GE1/1 chambers in the upgraded CMS Endcap Muon System using 2023 collision data at TeV
M. Abbas, S. Abbott, M. Abbrescia +184
The CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider employs Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detectors, a technology based on gaseous ionization, as one of the muon detectors. The muon sp…
Multi-Purpose Binomial Model: Fitting all Moments to the Underlying Geometric Brownian Motion
Y. S. Kim, S. Stoyanov, S. Rachev +1
We construct a binomial tree model fitting all moments to the approximated geometric Brownian motion. Our construction generalizes the classical Cox-Ross-Rubinstein, the Jarrow-Rud…
Interstrip Capacitances of the Readout Board used in Large Triple-GEM Detectors for the CMS Muon Upgrade
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +178
We present analytical calculations, Finite Element Analysis modeling, and physical measurements of the interstrip capacitances for different potential strip geometries and dimensio…
Performance of a Triple-GEM Demonstrator in Collisions at the CMS Detector
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +178
After the Phase-2 high-luminosity upgrade to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the collision rate and therefore the background rate will significantly increase, particularly in the…
Hadronic B decays at BABAR
F. Fabozzi
We present preliminary results on hadronic decays of B mesons, based on data recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B-factory at SLAC. We measu…
Performance of Resistive Plate Chambers installed during the first long shutdown of the CMS experiment
M. Shopova, A. Aleksandrov, R. Hadjiiska +93
The CMS experiment, located at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, has a redundant muon system composed by three different detector technologies: Cathode Strip Chambers (in the forward…
Modeling the triple-GEM detector response to background particles for the CMS Experiment
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +186
An estimate of environmental background hit rate on triple-GEM chambers is performed using Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and compared to data taken by test chambers installed in the…
Quality Control of Mass-Produced GEM Detectors for the CMS GE1/1 Muon Upgrade
M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia, H. Abdalla +179
The series of upgrades to the Large Hadron Collider, culminating in the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider, will enable a significant expansion of the physics program of the CMS…
Gas Analysis and Monitoring Systems for the RPC Detector of CMS at LHC
M. Abbrescia, A. Colaleo, R. Guida +38
The Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) detector of the CMS experiment at the LHC proton collider (CERN, Switzerland) will employ an online gas analysis and monitoring system of the fre…
The Physics of the B Factories
A. J. Bevan, B. Golob, Th. Mannel +2003
This work is on the Physics of the B Factories. Part A of this book contains a brief description of the SLAC and KEK B Factories as well as their detectors, BaBar and Belle, and da…
