Infrastructure for Detector Research and Development towards the International Linear Collider
J. Aguilar, P. Ambalathankandy, T. Fiutowski +274
The EUDET-project was launched to create an infrastructure for developing and testing new and advanced detector technologies to be used at a future linear collider. The aim was to…
Development of a modular and scalable data acquisition system for calorimeters at a linear collider
M. J. Goodrick, L. B. A. Hommels, R. Shaw +12
A data acquisition (DAQ) system has been developed which will read out and control calorimeters serving as prototype systems for a future detector at an electron-positron linear co…
Study of the interactions of pions in the CALICE silicon-tungsten calorimeter prototype
C. Adloff, Y. Karyotakis, J. Repond +155
A prototype silicon-tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter for an ILC detector was tested in 2007 at the CERN SPS test beam. Data were collected with electron and hadron beams in the…
Construction and Commissioning of the CALICE Analog Hadron Calorimeter Prototype
C. Adloff, Y. Karyotakis, J. Repond +225
An analog hadron calorimeter (AHCAL) prototype of 5.3 nuclear interaction lengths thickness has been constructed by members of the CALICE Collaboration. The AHCAL prototype consist…
The LCFIVertex package: vertexing, flavour tagging and vertex charge reconstruction with an ILC vertex detector
LCFI Collaboration, David Bailey, Erik Devetak +58
The precision measurements envisaged at the International Linear Collider (ILC) depend on excellent instrumentation and reconstruction software. The correct identification of heavy…
Response of the CALICE Si-W Electromagnetic Calorimeter Physics Prototype to Electrons
CALICE Collaboration
A prototype Silicon-Tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) for an International Linear Collider (ILC) detector was installed and tested during summer and autumn 2006 at CERN.…
