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…
TOFHIR2: The readout ASIC of the CMS Barrel MIP Timing Detector
E. Albuquerque, M. Araújo, A. Benaglia +38
The CMS detector will be upgraded for the HL-LHC to include a MIP Timing Detector (MTD). The MTD will consist of barrel and endcap timing layers, BTL and ETL respectively, providin…
Effective exploitation of a geyser bubble-chamber equipment as a background-free fast neutron detector
R. Bertoni, G. Bruno, N. Burgio +10
MOSCAB equipment, a geyser-concept bubble-chamber originally thought for the search of dark matter in the form of WIMPs, is employed for the detection of fast neutrons. Once the ba…
Test beam characterization of sensor prototypes for the CMS Barrel MIP Timing Detector
R. Abbott, A. Abreu, F. Addesa +196
The MIP Timing Detector will provide additional timing capabilities for detection of minimum ionizing particles (MIPs) at CMS during the High Luminosity LHC era, improving event re…
MOSCAB: A geyser-concept bubble chamber to be used in a dark matter search
The MOSCAB Collaboration, A. Antonicci, M. Ardid +26
The MOSCAB experiment (Materia OSCura A Bolle) uses the "geyser technique", a variant of the superheated liquid technique of extreme simplicity. Operating principles of the new dar…
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…
Performance Of A Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber Exposed To The WANF Neutrino Beam
F. Arneodo et al.
We present the results of the first exposure of a Liquid Argon TPC to a multi-GeV neutrino beam. The data have been collected with a 50 liters ICARUS-like chamber located between t…
A new concept for streamer quenching in resistive plate chambers
A. Calcaterra, R. de Sangro, G. Mannocchi +6
In this paper we propose a new concept for streamer quenching in Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). In our approach, the multiplication process is quenched by the appropriate design…
