Test beam results of the GE1/1 prototype for a future upgrade of the CMS high- muon system
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbrescia, C. Armagnaud +55
Gas Electron Multipliers (GEM) are an interesting technology under consideration for the future upgrade of the forward region of the CMS muon system, specifically in the $1.6<| η|…
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…
Construction and Performance of Large-Area Triple-GEM Prototypes for Future Upgrades of the CMS Forward Muon System
M. Tytgat, A. Marinov, N. Zaganidis +56
At present, part of the forward RPC muon system of the CMS detector at the CERN LHC remains uninstrumented in the high-ηregion. An international collaboration is investigating the…
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…
Beam Test Results for New Full-scale GEM Prototypes for a Future Upgrade of the CMS High-eta Muon System
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbrescia, C. Armagnaud +56
The CMS GEM collaboration is considering Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) for upgrading the CMS forward muon system in the 1.5<|eta|<2.4 endcap region. GEM detectors can provide pre…
