The upgrade of the ALICE TPC with GEMs and continuous readout
J. Adolfsson, M. Ahmed, S. Aiola +232
The upgrade of the ALICE TPC will allow the experiment to cope with the high interaction rates foreseen for the forthcoming Run 3 and Run 4 at the CERN LHC. In this article, we des…
A next-generation LHC heavy-ion experiment
D. Adamová, G. Aglieri Rinella, M. Agnello +395
The present document discusses plans for a compact, next-generation multi-purpose detector at the LHC as a follow-up to the present ALICE experiment. The aim is to build a nearly m…
ALICE Overwatch: Online monitoring and data quality assurance using HLT data
R. J. Ehlers, J. D. Mulligan
ALICE Overwatch is a project started in late 2015 to provide augmented online monitoring and data quality assurance utilizing time-stamped QA histograms produced by the ALICE High…
Particle identification studies with a full-size 4-GEM prototype for the ALICE TPC upgrade
M. M. Aggarwal, Z. Ahammed, S. Aiola +177
A large Time Projection Chamber is the main device for tracking and charged-particle identification in the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. After the second long shutdown in 2019/…
Combination of two Gas Electron Multipliers and a Micromegas as gain elements for a time projection chamber
S. Aiola, R. J. Ehlers, S. Gu +6
We measured the properties of a novel combination of two Gas Electron Multipliers with a Micromegas for use as amplification devices in high-rate gaseous time projection chambers.…
Simulations of a multi-layer extended gating grid
J. D. Mulligan
A novel idea to control ion back-flow in time projection chambers is to use a multi-layer extended gating grid to capture back-flowing ions at the expense of live time and electron…
