Very forward energy distributions and jet production observed with CASTOR in CMS

The CASTOR calorimeter at the CMS experiment at LHC provides very forward (-6 : 6 < h <-5.2) energy measurements. Jets in this regime can be used as very sensitive probes of the low- x parton dynamics in the proton. Measurements of deposited energy in this region can be used to model cosmic ra...

description The CASTOR calorimeter at the CMS experiment at LHC provides very forward (-6 : 6 < h <-5.2) energy measurements. Jets in this regime can be used as very sensitive probes of the low- x parton dynamics in the proton. Measurements of deposited energy in this region can be used to model cosmic ray induced extensive air showers at ultra-high energies. The spectra of jets in CASTOR and the total, electromagnetic and hadronic energy depositions in CASTOR are measured and corrected to particle level, and compared to various relevant Monte Carlo models.
