Test Beam Performance Measurements for the Phase I Upgrade of the CMS Pixel Detector
M. Dragicevic, M. Friedl, J. Hrubec +481
A new pixel detector for the CMS experiment was built in order to cope with the instantaneous luminosities anticipated for the Phase~I Upgrade of the LHC. The new CMS pixel detecto…
Performance of a Tungsten-Cerium Fluoride Sampling Calorimeter in High-Energy Electron Beam Tests
R. Becker, L. Bianchini, G. Dissertori +29
A prototype for a sampling calorimeter made out of cerium fluoride crystals interleaved with tungsten plates, and read out by wavelength-shifting fibres, has been exposed to beams…
Impact of low-dose electron irradiation on n+p silicon strip sensors
The Tracker Group of the CMS Collaboration
The response of n+p silicon strip sensors to electrons from a Sr-90 source was measured using a multi-channel read-out system with 25 ns sampling time. The measurements were perfor…
FACT -- Operation of the First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope
T. Bretz, A. Biland, J. Buß +33
Since more than two years, the First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) is operating successfully at the Canary Island of La Palma. Apart from its purpose to serve as a monitoring fa…
FACT -- The G-APD revolution in Cherenkov astronomy
T. Bretz, H. Anderhub, M. Backes +53
Since two years, the FACT telescope is operating on the Canary Island of La Palma. Apart from its purpose to serve as a monitoring facility for the brightest TeV blazars, it was bu…
Calibration and performance of the photon sensor response of FACT -- The First G-APD Cherenkov telescope
A. Biland, T. Bretz, J. Buß +33
The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) is the first in-operation test of the performance of silicon photo detectors in Cherenkov Astronomy. For more than two years it is operat…
FACT - The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope: Status and Results
T. Bretz, H. Anderhub, M. Backes +51
The First G-APD Cherenkov telescope (FACT) is the first telescope using silicon photon detectors (G-APD aka. SiPM). It is built on the mount of the HEGRA CT3 telescope, still locat…
FACT: Towards Robotic Operation of an Imaging Air Cherenkov Telescope
A. Biland, H. Anderhub, M. Backes +51
The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) became operational at La Palma in October 2011. Since summer 2012, due to very smooth and stable operation, it is the first telescope of…
Design and Operation of FACT -- The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope
H. Anderhub, M. Backes, A. Biland +51
The First G-APD Cherenkov Telescope (FACT) is designed to detect cosmic gamma-rays with energies from several hundred GeV up to about 10 TeV using the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov…
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…
A Study of Cosmic Ray Secondaries Induced by the Mir Space Station Using AMS-01
01 Collaboration
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS-02) is a high energy particle physics experiment that will study cosmic rays in the to range and will…
Search for antihelium in cosmic rays
AMS Collaboration
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) was flown on the space shuttle Discovery during flight STS-91 in a 51.7 degree orbit at altitudes between 320 and 390 km. A total of 2.86 * 10…
