Front-end electro-optical interfaces for CMS HCAL

The CMS experiment is a complex instrument to study particle physics at the energy frontier. An important detector subsystem within CMS is the hadron calorimeter or HCAL, consisting of four subsystems that cover the kinematic region vertical bar eta vertical bar less than 5.

Sumario:The CMS experiment is a complex instrument to study particle physics at the energy frontier. An important detector subsystem within CMS is the hadron calorimeter or HCAL, consisting of four subsystems that cover the kinematic region vertical bar eta vertical bar less than 5. This paper provides details of the electrooptical interfaces for the central barrel subsystem that operates in a region of high magnetic field and converts scintillation signals from megatile sampling layers to tower geometry for energy measurement. 3 Refs.
