Future circular collider based lepton-hadron and photon-hadron colliders: Luminosity and physics

Kaya, Umit/0000-0003-0823-3848WOS: 000410699700008Construction of future electron-positron colliders (or dedicated electron linac) and muon colliders (or dedicated muon ring) tangential to Future Circular Collider (FCC) will give opportunity to utilize highest energy proton and nucleus beams for lepton-hadron and photon-hadron collisions. Luminosity values of FCC based ep, mu p, eA, mu A, gamma p and gamma A colliders are estimated. Multi-TeV center of mass energy.... colliders based on the FCC and linear colliders (LC) are considered in detail. Parameters of upgraded versions of the FCC proton beam are determined to optimize luminosity of electron-proton collisions keeping beam-beam effects in mind. Numerical calculations are performed using a currently being developed collision point simulator. It is shown that L-ep greater than or similar to 10(33) cm(-2) s(-1) can be achieved with LHeC-like upgrade of the FCC parameters. Moreover, "dynamic focusing'' scheme could provide opportunity to handle L-ep greater than or similar to 10(33) cm(-2) s(-1). (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V.

Timing Performance of the CMS High Granularity Calorimeter Prototype

International audienceThis paper describes the experience with the calibration, reconstruction and evaluation of the timing capabilities of the CMS HGCAL prototype in the beam tests in 2018. The calibration procedure includes multiple steps and corrections ranging from tens of nanoseconds to a few hundred picoseconds. The timing performance is studied using signals from positron beam particles with energies between 20 GeV and 300 GeV. The performance is studied as a function of particle energy against an external timing reference as well as standalone by comparing the two different halves of the prototype. The timing resolution is found to be 60 ps for single-channel measurements and better than 20 ps for full showers at the highest energies, setting excellent perspectives for the HGCAL calorimeter performance at the HL-LHC
