CMS Hadronic Endcap Calorimeter Upgrade Studies for SLHC “P-Terphenyl Deposited Quartz Plate Calorimeter Prototype”

摘要

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is going to start taking data with $10^{33}~{rm cm}^{-2}{rm s}^{-1}$ luminosity, and reach the designed value of $10^{34}~{rm cm}^{-2}{rm s}^{-1}$ in 2013. The LHC luminosity will continue to improve each year, reaching to $10^{35}~{rm cm}^{-2}{rm s}^{-1}$ in 2023. We call this high luminosity era the Super-LHC (SLHC). Hadronic Endcap (HE) calorimeters of the CMS experiment cover the pseudorapidity range of $1.4 u0003C; eta u0003C; 3$ on both sides of the CMS detector, contributing to superior jet and missing transverse energy resolutions. As the integrated luminosity of the LHC increases, the scintillator tiles used in the CMS Hadronic Endcap calorimeter will lose their efficiency.
