The SND@LHC neutron shielding
LHC Collaboration
The design and construction of a neutron shielding for the SND@LHC detector, which utilizes a combination of plexiglass and borated polyethylene, is presented. FLUKA simulations we…
Studies of Hadronic Showers in SND@LHC
LHC Collaboration
The SND@LHC experiment was built for observing neutrinos arising from LHC pp collisions. The detector consists of two sections: a target instrumented with SciFi modules and a hadro…
Study of the effects of radiation on the CMS Drift Tubes Muon Detector for the HL-LHC
G. Abbiendi, J. Alcaraz Maestre, A. Álvarez Fernández +140
The CMS drift tubes (DT) muon detector, built for withstanding the LHC expected integrated and instantaneous luminosities, will be used also in the High Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) at…
High rate, fast timing Glass RPC for the high η CMS muon detectors
F. Lagarde, M. Gouzevitch, I. Laktineh +108
The HL-LHC phase is designed to increase by an order of magnitude the amount of data to be collected by the LHC experiments. To achieve this goal in a reasonable time scale the ins…
High rate, fast timing Glass RPC for the high CMS muon detectors
Maxime Gouzevitch, François Lagarde, Imad Laktineh +16
The HL-LHC phase is designed to increase by an order of magnitude the amount of data to be collected by the LHC experiments. To achieve this goal in a reasonable time scale the ins…
Preliminary results of Resistive Plate Chambers operated with eco-friendly gas mixtures for application in the CMS experiment
M. Abbrescia, P. Van Auwegem, L. Benussi +11
The operations of Resistive Plate Chambers in LHC experiments require Fluorine based (F-based) gases for optimal performance. Recent European regulations demand the use of environm…
Performance of Resistive Plate Chambers installed during the first long shutdown of the CMS experiment
M. Shopova, A. Aleksandrov, R. Hadjiiska +93
The CMS experiment, located at the CERN Large Hadron Collider, has a redundant muon system composed by three different detector technologies: Cathode Strip Chambers (in the forward…
Eco-friendly gas mixtures for Resistive Plate Chambers based on Tetrafluoropropene and Helium
M. Abbrescia, L. Benussi, S. Bianco +8
Due to the recent restrictions deriving from the application of the Kyoto protocol, the main components of the gas mixtures presently used in the Resistive Plate Chambers systems o…
Radiation Tests of Real-Sized Prototype RPCs for the Future CMS RPC Upscope
K. S. Lee, S. Choi, B. S. Hong +93
We report on a systematic study of double-gap and four-gap phenolic resistive plate chambers (RPCs) for future high-η RPC triggers in the CMS. In the present study, we constructed…
Characterization of the GEM foil materials
L. Benussi, S. Bianco, G. Saviano +19
Systematic studies on the GEM foil material are performed to measure the moisture diffusion rate and saturation level. These studies are important because the presence of this comp…
Candidate eco-friendly gas mixtures for MPGDs
L. Benussi, S. Bianco, G. Saviano +13
Modern gas detectors for detection of particles require F-based gases for optimal performance. Recent regulations demand the use of environmentally unfriendly F-based gases to be l…
A novel application of Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensors in MPGD
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…
