The EEEMCal group is has been carrying out detector prototype beam tests at Jefferson Lab and DESY. The next beam tests are planned for 2024

EEEMCAL BEAM TESTS 2024

Beam test campaigns planned with focus on 1) 5x5 PWO+SiPM full chain test, 2) 5x5 with realistic mechanical structures, e.g., carbon. For (1), the electronics/readout overall need to complete investigations of stability, linearity, and power deposition for the two approaches (discrete and ASICS). Beam test goals:

  • test if ASIC gives comparable result with fADC
  • what is the minimum energy that can be detected with both sets of electronics
  • SiPM choice should be made before beam tests with only one channel. Idea is to use only one type of SiPM for the beam test. This can be done with cosmics. For SiPM need to decide between 10um and 15um - one of the differences is nonlinearity

EEEMCAL BEAM TESTS 2022 and 2023

Beam test campaigns carried out with 3x3 PWO+SiPM (JLab, also MAMI) and 5x5 PWO+PMT (DESY) arrays.
