The lead tungstate crystals forming the barrel part of the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter (ECAL) will still perform well, even after the expected 3000 fb-1 at the end of HL-LHC. The avalanche photodiodes (APDs) used to detect the scintillation light have recently been exposed to the levels of radiation expected at the end of HL-LHC. Although they will continue to be operational, there will be some increase in noise due to radiation-induced dark-currents. Triggering on electromagnetic objects with ~140 pileup events necessitates a change of the front-end electronics. New developments in high-speed optical links will allow single-crystal readout at 40 MHz to upgraded off-detector processors, allowing maximum flexibility and enhanced triggering capabilities. The very-front-end system will also be upgraded, to provide improved rejection of anomalous signals in the APDs as well as to mitigate the increase in APD noise. We are also considering lowering the ECAL barrel operating temperature from 18 degrees C to about 8-10 degrees C, in order to increase the scintillation light output and reduce the APD dark current.

The background detection is based on Cherenkov radiation produced in synthetic fused silica read out by a fast, UV sensitive photomultiplier tube. Twenty detector units per end will be azimuthally distributed around the rotating shielding of CMS, covering ~408 cm2 at 20.6m from the interaction point, at a radius of ~180 cm. The directional and fast response of the system allows the discrimination of the background particles from the dominant flux in the cavern induced by pp collision debris, produced within the 25 ns bunch spacing. A robust multi-layered shielding will enclose each detector unit to protect the photomultiplier tube from the magnetic field and to eliminate the occupancy from low energy particles. The design of the front-end units is validated by experimental results. An overview of the new system to be integrated in CMS during the current shutdown of LHC will be presented, and its perspective for monitoring in High Luminosity LHC.

During the first three years of running, tremendous steps forwards have been made in the comprehension of the subtleties related to luminosity monitoring and calibration, which led to an unprecedented accuracy at a hadron collider. The detectors and corresponding algorithms employed to estimate online and offline the luminosity in CMS are described. Details are given concerning the procedure based on the Van der Meer scan technique that allowed a very precise calibration of the luminometers from the determination of the LHC beams parameters. What is being prepared in terms of detector and online software upgrades for the next LHC run is also summarized.

The first level is implemented on custom-designed electronics. The second level is the so-called High Level Trigger (HLT), a streamlined version of the CMS offline reconstruction software running on a computer farm. For Run II of the Large Hadron Collider, the increase in center-of-mass energy and luminosity will raise the event rate to a level challenging for the HLT algorithm. New approaches have been studied to keep the HLT output rate manageable while maintaining thresholds low enough to cover physics analyses. The strategy mainly relies on porting online the ingredients that have been successfully applied in the offline reconstruction, thus allowing to move HLT selection closer to offline cuts. We will present such improvements in the definitions of HLT electrons and photons, focusing in particular on the deployment of a new superclustering algorithm allowing pileup mitigation, a new Particle-Flow-based isolation replacing the less powerful detector-based approach, and an electron-dedicated track fitting algorithm based on a Gaussian Sum Filter.

The Level 1 Trigger is implemented on custom-designed electronics. The High Level Trigger (HLT) is a streamlined version of the CMS offline reconstruction software running on a computer farm. Using b-tagging at trigger level will play a crucial role during the Run II data taking to ensure the Top quark, beyond the Standard Model and Higgs boson physics programme of the experiment. It will help to significantly reduce the trigger output rate which will increase due to the higher instantaneous luminosity and higher cross sections at 13 TeV. B-tagging algorithms based on the identification of tracks displaced from the primary proton-proton collision or on the reconstruction of secondary vertices have been successfully used during Run I. We will present their design and performance with an emphasis on the dedicated aspects of track and primary vertex reconstruction, as well as the improvements foreseen to meet the challenges of the Run II data taking (high track multiplicity, out-of-time pile-up).

It is important to complement the measurements of the irradiated Si strip sensors with device simulation, which helps in both the understanding of the device behavior and optimizing the design parameters needed for future CMS Tracker Upgrade. Thus, one of the important ingredient of the device simulation is to develop a radiation damage model incorporating both bulk and surface damage. In this work, we demonstrate the development of radiation damage model using TCAD tools, which successfully explains the recent measurements like leakage current, depletion voltage, interstrip capacitance and interstrip resistance, and provides an insight into the performance of irradiated Si strip sensors. Summary A systematic development of a new radiation damage model, for hadron irradiation, will be presented. This model consider surface and bulk damage simultaneously and is capable of explaining the strip sensors and diode measurements like, leakage current, depletion voltage, interstrip resistance, interstrip capacitance etc. It further provide insight into observed good interstrip resistance with low p-stop/p-spray insulation structures for proton irradiated n+p strip sensors. This model was used to simulate the sensor properties for CMS Phase-II tracker upgrade campaign.

New-generation experiments for double beta decay detection need to be sensitive to lifetimes longer than 1025 years. One remarkable challenge is the conception of a detector that enables an efficient and unambiguous identification of such a signal. Of the different detection techniques available, one has been chosen based on its suitability for complying with the key demands of this particular experiment: the capability to achieve an optimal energy resolution at the Xe Qββ energy (2.458 MeV), the event topology reconstruction competence to identify the distinct dE/dx of electron tracks, capability of high background suppression and the aptitude to be expanded to a large-scale system. Electroluminescence as the amplification technique for the primary ionisation and SiPM as the readout sensors for the topological recognition have been the elected means to integrate the experiment, combined in a high-pressure xenon Time Projection Chamber. Prototypes on which extensive studies have been performed already offered very promising results. One of these large prototypes is NEXT-DEMO, a TPC based on electroluminescence that validates the feasibility of the NEXT detector concept. This prototype is being upgraded to NEXT-NEW, which will fully operate in Canfranc Underground Laboratory. In this work, results will be presented and considerations will be made on both NEXT-DEMO and NEXT-NEW. Summary The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon TPC (NEXT) aims to detect neutrinoless double beta decay using a high-pressure Xe-136 TPC based on electroluminescence to be deployed in the Canfranc Underground Laboratory, Spain. New-generation experiments for double beta decay detection need to be sensitive to lifetimes longer than 1025 years. One remarkable defy is the conception of a detector that enables an efficient and unambiguous identification of such a signal. For NEXT, the detection technique has been chosen based on its suitability for complying with the key demands of this particular experiment: the capability to achieve an optimal energy resolution at the Xe Qββ energy (2.458 MeV), the event topology reconstruction competence proving the possibility to identify the distinct dE/dx of electron tracks, capability of high background suppression and the aptitude to be expanded to a large-scale system. To achieve optimal energy resolution, electroluminescence has been chosen as the amplification technique for the primary ionisation of xenon, over the charge amplification technique. As for the readout planes, the chamber will have distinct detection planes for calorimetry and tracking, behind cathode and anode, respectively. SiPMs have been elected as the readout sensors for the topological recognition and PMTs for the energy plane. The detection process is as follows: Particles interacting in the HPXe transfer their energy to the medium through ionisation and excitation. The excitation energy is patent in the prompt emission of VUV (around 178 nm) scintillation light from the xenon gas. The ionisation tracks (positive ions and free electrons) left behind by the particle are prevented from recombine applying an electric field of 0.3–0.5 kV per cm. The ionisation electrons drift toward the TPC anode, entering a region, delimited by two highly-transparent meshes, with an even more intense electric field, 3 kV per cm per bar. There, further VUV photons are formed isotropically by electroluminescence processes. Hence, both primary scintillation and primary ionisation produce an optical signal, which is detected in the energy plane with PMTs, located behind the cathode. The detection of the primary scintillation light constitutes the start-of-event, whereas the detection of electroluminescence light provides an energy measurement. Electroluminescent light provides tracking as well, since it is detected also at the anode plane, by means of an array of 1-mm2 SiPMs, 1cm in pitch, placed a few millimetres away from the electroluminescence region, Fig.1. Prototypes using the above described features, on which extensive studies have been performed, already offered very promising results. One of these large prototypes is NEXT-DEMO, which validates the feasibility of the NEXT detector concept. NEXT-DEMO has been fully operational at IFIC, Valencia, since 2011. A near-intrinsic energy resolution has been reached in the NEXT-DEMO prototype with a value of about 1.8% FWHM for 511 keV electrons, extrapolating to about 0.8% FWHM at Qββ=2.458 MeV, Fig.2. Fig.1: The Separate, Optimized Functions (SOFT) concept in the NEXT experiment: EL light generated at the anode is recorded in the photosensor plane right behind it and used for tracking; it is also recorded in the photosensor plane behind the transparent cathode and used for a precise energy measurement. Fig. 2: Energy spectrum for 511 keV gammas interacting in NEXT-DEMO. From the low- to the high energy-region, one can clearly identify the X-ray peak (~30 keV), the Compton continuum (100-340 keV), the X-ray escape peak (~480 keV) and the photo-electric peak (full energy). The SiPM-based read-out planes in NEXT-DEMO have clearly demonstrated the good tracking capability of the chosen design. Straight cosmic-ray muon tracks, ~500 keV electron tracks dominated by multiple Coulomb scattering, and isolated X-ray energy deposition of about 30 keV have been reconstructed. On the other hand, the tracking plane information can be combined with the energy (PMT) plane information in order to identify the number of Bragg peaks signaling the number of electrons ranging out in the detector. This is useful for ββ0 searches, since the “blob", i.e., a track segment with higher energy deposition, multiplicity per event is expected to provide an additional background suppression factor. Signal events tend to yield two “blobs" from two electrons emanating from a common vertex. In the case of background, dominated by gamma interactions, only one “blob" per event is typically expected. Energy blobs where electron tracks range out have been clearly identified in NEXT-DEMO using the energy plane information, by projecting the electron tracks’ dE/dx pattern along the drift direction, Fig.3. Fig. 3: The reconstructed track left by a photoelectric electron produced by the interaction of a 662-keV gamma (from a 137Cs calibration source) detected by NEXT-DEMO. NEXT-DEMO has been upgraded to NEXT-NEW, which will fully operate in Canfranc Underground Laboratory. The assembly and commissioning of the detector is planned for 2014. In this presentation, results from NEXT-DEMO will be presented and considerations will be made on both NEXT-DEMO and NEXT-NEW. Primary Authors: Dr. MONTEIRO, Cristina M. B.
