Author: Corral, Gerardo Herrera
Subjects: *NUCLEAR counters, *DIFFRACTIVE scattering, *LARGE Hadron Collider, *NUCLEAR physics, *SCINTILLATORS, *PROTON-proton interactions, *ANGULAR momentum (Nuclear physics), *HEAVY ion collisions
Abstract: We discuss some aspects of a new sub-detector for the ALICE experiment at the LHC. This detector would enhance the capabilities of ALICE to study several topics of diffractive as well as of photon induced physics. It consists of four stations of scintillator pads that would tag the diffractive gap more efficiently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Diffractive and photon induced physics is a research area with a remarkable discovery potential at the LHC. ALICE has started a program to exploit its unique capabilities to study the subject in both proton-proton and heavy ion collisions. We discuss some aspects of a new sub-detector for the ALICE experiment at the LHC. This detector would enhance the performance of ALICE to address some relevant topics on this matter. It consists of four stations of scintillator pads that would tag the diffractive gap more efficiently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: Abstract: The calorimeter system of the LHCb experiment consists of a scintillator layer (SPD), a preshower detector (PS), an electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) and a hadronic calorimeter (HCAL), and allows to trigger on hadron, electron and photon candidates. The time synchronization of the four sub-detectors studied with cosmic rays, LHC beam injection tests and LHC proton proton collisions is presented. Energy calibration methods for each subsystem are discussed as well. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
