Sensor operating point calibration and monitoring of the ALICE Inner Tracking System during LHC Run 3
D. Agguiaro, G. Aglieri Rinella, L. Aglietta +282
The new Inner Tracking System (ITS2) of the ALICE experiment began operation in 2021 with the start of LHC Run 3. Compared to its predecessor, ITS2 offers substantial improvements…
Atmospheric effects on cosmic-ray muon rate at high latitude (78.9°N)
M. Abbrescia, C. Avanzini, L. Baldini +71
Since 2019, three scintillator detectors of the EEE collaboration have been continuously measuring cosmic muon rates at 78.9°N at the Ny-à lesund Research Station (Svalbard). The…
The CMS Barrel Timing Layer: test beam confirmation of module timing performance
F. Addesa, P. Akrap, A. Albert +127
First of its kind, the barrel section of the MIP Timing Detector is a large area timing detector based on LYSO:Ce crystals and SiPMs which are required to operate in an unprecedent…
Optimization of LYSO crystals and SiPM parameters for the CMS MIP timing detector
F. Addesa, T. Anderson, P. Barria +68
For the High-Luminosity (HL-LHC) phase, the upgrade of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at CERN will include a novel MIP Timing Detector (MTD). The central part of MTD, t…
