Characterization of GEM Detectors for Application in the CMS Muon Detection System
D. Abbaneo, S. Bally, H. Postema +26
The muon detection system of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider is based on different technologies for muon tracking and triggering. In particul…
Construction of the first full-size GEM-based prototype for the CMS high- muon system
D. Abbaneo, S. Bally, H. Postema +32
In view of a possible extension of the forward CMS muon detector system and future LHC luminosity upgrades, Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGDs) are an appealing technology. They ca…
First results of spherical GEMs
Serge Duarte Pinto, Matteo Alfonsi, Ian Brock +7
We developed a method to make GEM foils with a spherical geometry. Tests of this procedure and with the resulting spherical GEMs are presented. Together with a spherical drift elec…
Measurement of sigma(pp -> b anti-b X) at \sqrt(s)=7 TeV in the forward region
LHCb Collaboration, R. Aaij, C. Abellan Beteta +628
Decays of b hadrons into final states containing a D0 meson and a muon are used to measure the b anti-b production cross-section in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass ene…
Progress on large area GEMs (VCI 2010)
Marco Villa, Serge Duarte Pinto, Matteo Alfonsi +7
The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) manufacturing technique has recently evolved to allow the production of large area GEMs. A novel approach based on single mask photolithography el…
