Study of beam-induced particle backgrounds at the LEP detectors
Synchrotron radiation photons and off-momentum electrons which contribute to backgrounds in the LEP experiments have been simulated. A multi-faceted background protection system has been designed and installed which permits the experiments to take data under very clean conditions. The backgrounds ha...

description | Synchrotron radiation photons and off-momentum electrons which contribute to backgrounds in the LEP experiments have been simulated. A multi-faceted background protection system has been designed and installed which permits the experiments to take data under very clean conditions. The backgrounds have been measured at LEP1 and are in good agreement with calculations. These simulations and studies have led to a design of enhanced background protection for LEP2 where the photon background is expected to be far more severe. |
