The PARIS calorimeter is an apparatus intended for the future SPIRAL2 facility in Caen, France. It will comprise a spherical shell of scintillators detectors making extensive use of LaBr3(Ce) - a relatively new material with excellent energy resolution (∼3% at 662-keV). The individual detector modules will be of a phoswich design where the fast LaBr3(Ce) crystal is optically coupled to a slower conventional crystal like NaI and the scintillation light is collected with a single photomultiplier tube.

Analysis techniques in LHCf are presented, in which all techniques are required to have a high resolution and efficiency in order to overcome the severe situation, small lateral aperture and longitudinally short length of the detector. In this paper, methods for reconstructing an energy of electromagnetic shower are discussed following the data flow of measured data and Monte Carlo simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The observation of diffraction at LHC with the CMS detector at [formula] and 2360 GeV is presented, along with a comparison of the data with the predictions of the PYTHIA and PHOJET generators. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
