Argonne Pixel Tracking Telescope at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility
Vallary Bhopatkar, Mathieu Benoit, Binbin Dong +5
The Argonne Pixel Tracking Telescope is installed at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility. The telescope consists of six planar n^{+}-in-n silicon sensors with a pixel size of 250 {\tim…
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…
R&D on GEM Detectors for Forward Tracking at a Future Electron-Ion Collider
Aiwu Zhang, Vallary Bhopatkar, Marcus Hohlmann +5
We report the status of R&D on large triple-GEM detectors for a forward tracker (FT) in an experiment at a future Electron Ion Collider (EIC) that will improve our understanding of…
Performance of a Large-area GEM Detector Read Out with Wide Radial Zigzag Strips
Aiwu Zhang, Vallary Bhopatkar, Eric Hansen +6
A 1-meter-long trapezoidal Triple-GEM detector with wide readout strips was tested in hadron beams at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility in October 2013. The readout strips have a spe…
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…
Potential Impact of a New GEM-based Detector on CMS Triggering
A. Castaneda
With the increases in the LHC instantaneous luminosity, maintaining effective triggering and avoiding dead time will become especially challenging. As the sensitivity of many physi…
