Performance of prototype GE11 chambers for the CMS muon spectrometer upgrade

Abstract: The high-luminosity phase of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) will result in ten times higher particle background than measured during the first phase of LHC operation. In order to fully exploit the highly-demanding operating conditions during HL-LHC, the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) Collaboration will use Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) detector technology. The technology will be integrated into the innermost region of the forward muon spectrometer of CMS as an additional muon station called GE1/1. The primary… Show more

“…The values for the average sensitivity estimated using energy spectrum of the incident background particles and sensitivity from different energies are presented in table 5 both for "layer-1" and "layer-2". The approach of using average sensitivity is preferred rather than obtaining sensitivity for different 𝜂-sectors because these detectors have uniform response for each 𝜂-sector, as verified with X-rays during quality control tests [23]. The effect of detector material and configuration on sensitivity could be realized from a comparison of figure 3 left and figure 7 as they represent basic geometry and CMS specific geometry respectively.…”

“…GEM detectors are used in different collider experiments [93], mainly for tracking and triggering purposes. Spatial resolution down to 50 µm is possible, with a time resolution that depends on the used gas mixture used: 7-10 ns in Ar:CO2 [94] down to 3.5 ns when CF 4 is used in the gas mixture [95]. Rate capabilities up to 100 kHz/cm 2 have been assessed.…”

“…Previous test beam campaigns showed that such performance can be obtained using GE1/1 detectors operating with an effective gas gain around 2 × 10 4 . The gain performances of all detectors should fall within ±37% of this nominal effective gas gain value to ensure a detection system with sufficiently uniform gain [17]. The typical HV range for obtaining such gain values is 3290-3390 V applied on the drift electrode for GE1/1 detectors.…”
