The Time Structure of Hadronic Showers in highly granular Calorimeters with Tungsten and Steel Absorbers
C. Adloff, J. -J. Blaising, M. Chefdeville +210
The intrinsic time structure of hadronic showers influences the timing capability and the required integration time of hadronic calorimeters in particle physics experiments, and de…

C. Adloff, J. Blaha, J. -J. Blaising +169
Calorimeters with a high granularity are a fundamental requirement of the Particle Flow paradigm. This paper focuses on the prototype of a hadron calorimeter with analog readout, c…
First results of the CALICE SDHCAL technological prototype
V. Buridon, C. Combaret, L. Caponetto +118
The CALICE Semi-Digital Hadronic Calorimeter (SDHCAL) prototype, built in 2011, was exposed to beams of hadrons, electrons and muons in two short periods in 2012 on two different b…
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…
3D atomic structure from a single XFEL pulse
G. Bortel, M. Tegze, M. Sikorski +10
X-ray Free Electron Lasers (XFEL) are the most advanced pulsed x-ray sources. Their extraordinary pulse parameters promise unique applications. Indeed, several new methods have bee…
