Sensor operating point calibration and monitoring of the ALICE Inner Tracking System during LHC Run 3
D. Agguiaro, G. Aglieri Rinella, L. Aglietta +285
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…
Toward the End-to-End Optimization of Particle Physics Instruments with Differentiable Programming: a White Paper
Tommaso Dorigo, Andrea Giammanco, Pietro Vischia +33
The full optimization of the design and operation of instruments whose functioning relies on the interaction of radiation with matter is a super-human task, given the large dimensi…
First demonstration of in-beam performance of bent Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors
ALICE ITS project, :, G. Aglieri Rinella +250
A novel approach for designing the next generation of vertex detectors foresees to employ wafer-scale sensors that can be bent to truly cylindrical geometries after thinning them t…
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC with GEMs and continuous readout
J. Adolfsson, M. Ahmed, S. Aiola +232
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC will allow the experiment to cope with the high interaction rates foreseen for the forthcoming Run 3 and Run 4 at the CERN LHC. In this article, we des…
Design and Performance of a Silicon Tungsten Calorimeter Prototype Module and the Associated Readout
T. Awes, C. L. Britton, T. Chujo +41
We describe the details of a silicon-tungsten prototype electromagnetic calorimeter module and associated readout electronics. Detector performance for this prototype has been meas…
A next-generation LHC heavy-ion experiment
D. Adamová, G. Aglieri Rinella, M. Agnello +395
The present document discusses plans for a compact, next-generation multi-purpose detector at the LHC as a follow-up to the present ALICE experiment. The aim is to build a nearly m…
