D. Abbaneo, M. Abbas, M. Abbrescia +153
We present a novel application of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors in the construction and characterisation of Micro Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD), with particular attention to…
A study of HFO-1234ze (1,3,3,3-Tetrafluoropropene) as an eco-friendly replacement in RPC detectors
L. Benussi, S. Bianco, M. Ferrini +5
The operations of Resistive Plate Chambers in LHC experiments require F-based gases for optimal performance. Recent regulations demand the use of environmentally unfriendly F-based…
Potential Impact of a New GEM-based Detector on CMS Triggering
A. Castaneda
With the increases in the LHC instantaneous luminosity, maintaining effective triggering and avoiding dead time will become especially challenging. As the sensitivity of many physi…
A study of gas contaminants and interaction with materials in RPC closed loop systems
S. Colafranceschi, R. Aurilio, L. Benussi +18
Resistive Plate Counters (RPC) detectors at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments use gas recirculation systems to cope with large gas mixture volumes and costs. In this pape…
Construction and Performance of Large-Area Triple-GEM Prototypes for Future Upgrades of the CMS Forward Muon System
M. Tytgat, A. Marinov, N. Zaganidis +56
At present, part of the forward RPC muon system of the CMS detector at the CERN LHC remains uninstrumented in the high-ηregion. An international collaboration is investigating the…
Test beam results of the GE1/1 prototype for a future upgrade of the CMS high- muon system
