The CONDOR Observatory: A Gamma-Ray Observatory with a 100 GeV Threshold at 5300 Meters Above Sea Level
Miguel Arratia, Will Brooks, Jiajun Huang +8
We present the design of the Compact Network of Detectors with Orbital Range (CONDOR), a proposed high-altitude gamma-ray and cosmic-ray (CR) observatory set to become the highest…
Design of a SiPM-on-Tile ZDC for the future EIC and its Performance with Graph Neural Networks
Ryan Milton, Sebouh J. Paul, Barak Schmookler +5
We present a design for a high-granularity zero-degree calorimeter (ZDC) for the upcoming Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). The design uses SiPM-on-tile technology and features a novel…
Feasibility Study of Measuring Using a High-Granularity Zero-Degree Calorimeter at the Future Electron-Ion Collider
Sebouh J. Paul, Ryan Milton, Sebastián Morán +2
Key measurements at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), including first-of-their-kind studies of kaon structure, require the detection of at forward angles. We present a…
First-Ever Deployment of a SiPM-on-Tile Calorimeter in a Collider: A Parasitic Test with 200 GeV Collisions at RHIC
Weibin Zhang, Sean Preins, Jiajun Huang +7
We describe the testing of a prototype SiPM-on-tile iron-scintillator calorimeter at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) during its 200 GeV run in 2024. The prototype,…
