The SLHC Program and CMS Hadron Calorimeter Upgrades

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to provide 14 TeV center of mass energy with proton-proton collisions every 25 ns. After several years of running, the LHC will be upgraded to the super-LHC (SLHC), which will operate with 10 times higher luminosity (L = 10^35 cm^-2s^-1), thereby allowing...

Sumario:The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is designed to provide 14 TeV center of mass energy with proton-proton collisions every 25 ns. After several years of running, the LHC will be upgraded to the super-LHC (SLHC), which will operate with 10 times higher luminosity (L = 10^35 cm^-2s^-1), thereby allowing new physics discoveries. The impact of the LHC luminosity upgrade on the CMS detector is discussed.
