The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is currently operating with proton-proton collisions at 13 TeV center-of-mass energy and at a bunch spacing of 25 ns. Achieving and maintaining excellent energy resolution for electrons and photons is of primary importance for the CMS physics program for Standard Model measurements and beyond Standard Model searches. In...
Studies have been done and continue on the design and construction of a Shashlik detector using Radiation hard quartz capillaries filled with wavelength shifting liquid to collect the scintillation light from LYSO crystals for use as a calorimeter in the Phase II CMS upgrade at CERN. The work presented here focuses on the studies of the capillaries and liquids that would best suit the purpose of the...
The High-Luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider at CERN (HL-LHC) poses stringent requirements on calorimeter performance in terms of resolution, pileup resilience and radiation hardness. A tungsten-CeF3 sampling calorimeter is a possible option for the upgrade of current detectors. A prototype, read out with different types of wavelength-shifting fibers, has been built and exposed to high energy...
