India at LHC

First Large Scale Indian Participation in an InternationalExperiment

Indian accelerator research labs, led by RRCAT, Indore, and BARC, Mumbai, have contributed substantially, in kind, towardsthe LHC machine

Indian scientists/software personnel are contributing in-kind to the development of GRID software

Two groups: India-CMS & India-ALICE

Indian Participation in CMS Collaboration

Hardware responsibilities: - Outer hadron calorimeter Ensure more hermetic calorimeter for missing energy

- Silicon Pre-shower Detector. Discriminate between π0/ to detect Higgs 2γ mode (for light Higgs favored by existing data)

Lowering of YB-1 and YB-2

HO basic design

• Detector element is a plastic scintillator tile which produces light when charged particles pass through it

• This light is collected by embedded WLS fibers

• Light is transported to HPD detector via clear optical fibers spliced to WLS fibers

• Size and placement of the tiles is matched to geometric towers in the Barrel calorimeter

• Tiles are grouped together and packed in “trays” for ease of handling, and 6 trays in each phi sector are in turn inserted inside aluminum honeycomb housings.

Test the Standard (model) first and ensureno surprises from the detector before the real surprises from new physics
