Operation and performance of the CMS silicon strip tracker with proton-proton collisions at the CERN LHC
CMS Collaboration
Salient aspects of the commissioning, calibration, and performance of the CMS silicon strip tracker are discussed, drawing on experience during operation with proton-proton collisi…
Optical quality assurance of GEM foils
T. Hildén, E. Brücken, J. Heino +5
An analysis software was developed for the high aspect ratio optical scanning system in the Detec- tor Laboratory of the University of Helsinki and the Helsinki Institute of Physic…
A gaseous proportional counter built from a conventional aluminium beverage can
Alexander Winkler, Aneliya Karadzhinova, Timo Hildén +4
The gaseous proportional counter is a device that can be used to detect ionizing radiation. These devices can be as simple as a cylindrical cathode and a very thin anode wire cente…
Processing and characterization of epitaxial GaAs radiation detectors
X. Wu, T. Peltola, T. Arsenovich +12
GaAs devices have relatively high atomic numbers (Z=31, 33) and thus extend the X-ray absorption edge beyond that of Si (Z=14) devices. In this study, radiation detectors were proc…
Measurement of the underlying event activity in pp collisions at sqrt(s) = 0.9 and 7 TeV with the novel jet-area/median approach
CMS Collaboration
The first measurement of the charged component of the underlying event using the novel "jet-area/median" approach is presented for proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energi…
