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…
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…
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…
A novel application of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors in MPGD
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia +153
We present a novel application of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors in the construction and characterisation of Micro Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD), with particular attention to…
Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors as flatness and mechanical stretching sensors
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia +153
A novel approach which uses Fibre Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors has been utilised to assess and monitor the flatness of Gaseous Electron Multipliers (GEM) foils. The setup layout and…
Performance of the gas gain monitoring system of the CMS RPC muon detector
L. Benussi, S. Bianco, L. Passamonti +82
The RPC muon detector of the CMS experiment at the LHC (CERN, Geneva, Switzerland) is equipped with a Gas Gain Monitoring (GGM) system. A report on the stability of the system duri…
Performance of a Large-Area GEM Detector Prototype for the Upgrade of the CMS Muon Endcap System
D. Abbaneo, M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia +134
Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) technology is being considered for the forward muon upgrade of the CMS experiment in Phase 2 of the CERN LHC. Its first implementation is planned for…
CMS RPC muon detector performance with 2010-2012 LHC data
G. Pugliese
The muon spectrometer of the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is equipped with a redundant system made of Resistive Plate Chambers and Drif…
Radiation background with the CMS RPCs at the LHC
Silvia Costantini
The Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) are employed in the CMS experiment at the LHC as dedicated trigger system both in the barrel and in the endcap. This note presents results of th…
Radiation hardness qualification of PbWO4 scintillation crystals for the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter
The CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter Group, P. Adzic, N. Almeida +267
Ensuring the radiation hardness of PbWO4 crystals was one of the main priorities during the construction of the electromagnetic calorimeter of the CMS experiment at CERN. The produ…
