A study of film and foil materials for the GEM detector proposed for the CMS muon system upgrade Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • During the next shutdown of the LHC at CERN, the CMS experiment plans to start installing GEM detectors in the endcap (high pseudorapidity) region. These muon detectors have excellent spatial and temporal resolution as well as a high chemical stability and radiation hardness. A report is given on preliminary results of materials studies that aimed to fully characterize the GEM detector components before and after the exposure to a high-radiation environment. CERN 2014 for the benefit of the CMS collaboration..
