Precision measurement of the structure of the CMS inner tracking system using nuclear interactions
CMS Collaboration
The structure of the CMS inner tracking system has been studied using nuclear interactions of hadrons striking its material. Data from proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass…
Validation of GEANT4 Monte Carlo Models with a Highly Granular Scintillator-Steel Hadron Calorimeter
C. Adloff, J. Blaha, J. -J. Blaising +169
Calorimeters with a high granularity are a fundamental requirement of the Particle Flow paradigm. This paper focuses on the prototype of a hadron calorimeter with analog readout, c…
Track segments in hadronic showers in a highly granular scintillator-steel hadron calorimeter
CALICE Collaboration, C. Adloff, J. -J. Blaising +205
We investigate the three dimensional substructure of hadronic showers in the CALICE scintillator-steel hadronic calorimeter. The high granularity of the detector is used to find tr…
Construction and performance of a silicon photomultiplier/extruded scintillator tail-catcher and muon-tracker
The CALICE Collaboration
A prototype module for an International Linear Collider (ILC) detector was built, installed, and tested between 2006 and 2009 at CERN and Fermilab as part of the CALICE test beam p…
Tests of a particle flow algorithm with CALICE test beam data
The CALICE Collaboration
The studies presented in this paper provide a first experimental test of the Particle Flow Algorithm (PFA) concept using data recorded in high granularity calorimeters. Pairs of ov…
Electromagnetic response of a highly granular hadronic calorimeter
C. Adloff, J. Blaha, J. -J. Blaising +164
The CALICE collaboration is studying the design of high performance electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters for future International Linear Collider detectors. For the hadronic c…
Tests of a Digital Hadron Calorimeter
B. Bilki, John Butler, Ed May +6
In the context of developing a hadron calorimeter with extremely fine granularity for the application of Particle Flow Algorithms to the measurement of jet energies at a future lep…
Environmental Dependence of the Performance of Resistive Plate Chambers
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Ed May +6
This paper reports on the performance of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) as function of the gas flow rate through the chambers and of environmental conditions, such as atmospheric…
Hadron Showers in a Digital Hadron Calorimeter
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Georgios Mavromanolakis +6
A small prototype of a finely granulated digital hadron calorimeter with Resistive Plate Chambers as active elements was exposed to positive pions of 1 >. 16 GeV energy from the Fe…
Measurement of Positron Showers with a Digital Hadron Calorimeter
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Ed May +6
A small prototype of a finely granulated digital hadron calorimeter with Resistive Plate Chambers as active elements was exposed to positrons of 1 . 16 GeV energy from the Fermilab…
Response of the CALICE Si-W Electromagnetic Calorimeter Physics Prototype to Electrons
CALICE Collaboration
A prototype Silicon-Tungsten electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) for an International Linear Collider (ILC) detector was installed and tested during summer and autumn 2006 at CERN.…
