On the timing performance of thin planar silicon sensors
2017, Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated EquipmentCitation Excerpt :The SICAPO collaboration studied salient features of electromagnetic calorimeters with layers of high-Z absorber and silicon sensors for what were then future colliders [3]. The ALEPH and OPAL collaborations employed luminosity calorimeters consisting of tungsten and silicon sensors [4,5]. The CALICE collaboration has been investigating high-granularity calorimeters with different types of active elements as well as silicon for precision physics at future colliders [6].
Silicon detector systems in high energy physics
2009, Progress in Particle and Nuclear PhysicsCitation Excerpt :In addition charge collection is faster and radiation hardness better than in many gaseous detectors. Especially silicon–tungsten calorimeters have been used in forward calorimeters like the luminosity calorimeter of ALEPH [21]. For the ILC project electromagnetic sampling calorimeters based on silicon–tungsten have been proposed [22,23].
Precision electroweak measurements on the Z resonance
2006, Physics ReportsImproved measurement of the triple gauge-boson couplings γWW and ZWW in e<sup>+</sup>e<sup>-</sup> collisions
2005, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy PhysicsCitation Excerpt :The samples related to the single-γ analysis are described in [8]. Signal event samples with non-Standard Model TGC values were generated by reweighting Standard Model events with weights computed by the KoralW [17] or Excalibur [18] programs. In addition, a maximum likelihood (ML) analysis is employed to provide the unconstrained one-parameter limits on the real and imaginary parts of the 14 TGC parameters and to perform an indirect search for the techni-ρ.
Single vector boson production in e<sup>+</sup>e<sup>-</sup> collisions at centre-of-mass energies from 183 to 209 GeV
2005, Physics Letters, Section B: Nuclear, Elementary Particle and High-Energy PhysicsCitation Excerpt :Down to 34 mrad from the beam axis, the acceptance is closed at both ends of the experiment by the luminosity calorimeter (LCAL) [6] and a tungsten-silicon calorimeter (SICAL) [7] originally designed for the LEP1 luminosity measurement.
