The development of Digital Hadron Calorimetry for the SiD detector Concept for the International Linear Collider is described. The jet energy requirements of the ILC physics program are discussed. The concept of GEM-based digital hadron calorimetry is presented, followed by a description of, and results from, prototype detectors. Plans are described for ...

Two layers of GEMs and the ATLAS Pixel Chip, FEI3, have been combined and tested as a prototype for Time Projection Chamber (TPC) readout at the International Linear Collider (ILC). The double-layer GEM system amplifies charge with gain sufficient to detect all track ionization. The suitability of three gas mixtures for this ...

The University of Texas at Arlington High Energy Physics group has been developing a Digital Hadron Calorimeter (DHCAL) for the future International Linear Collider (ILC) using the Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) technology. The group has built several prototype chambers of dimension 30cmx30cm. The prototypes have been successful in measuring charges ...

A large volume Time Projection Chamber (TPC) has been proposed as the main tracking device for one of the experiments at the International Linear Collider (ILC). Gas Electron Multipliers (GEMs) are being studied as potential replacements for the conventional wire-based gas amplification system of TPCs. In this paper, recent results are presented from ...

A time projection chamber (TPC) is a strong candidate for the central tracker of the international linear collider (ILC) experiment and we have been conducting a series of cosmic ray experiments under a magnetic field up to 4 T, using a small prototype TPC with a replaceable readout device: multi-wire proportional chamber (MWPC) or gas electron multiplier ...

A novel charged particle tracking device, a high precision time projection chamber (TPC) with gas electron multiplier and pad readout, is a leading candidate as the central tracker for an experiment at the International Linear Collider. To characterize the performance of such a system, a small TPC has been operated within a magnetic field, measuring cosmic ray and laser tracks. Good tracking ...

Since 1997, Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) has attracted much attention in high energy particle detector development. The University of Texas at Arlington has been developing GEM detectors to use them as the sensitive gap detector for a Digital Hadron CALorimeter (DHCAL) which is going to be used in future experiments, such as those at the International ...

The application of vertically integrated (3D) electronics to particle physics has been explored by the our group for the past several years. We have successfully designed the first vertically integrated demonstrator chip for ILC vertex detection in the three-tier MIT-Lincoln Labs process. We have also studied sensor integration with electronics through ...

Course website for upper division geology course in gems and gem minerals at the University of Texas at Austin. The site is comprehensive with a syllabus, course notes and tutorials on a wide range of gems and gem minerals.

MIT is proposing to establish a new interdisciplinary Center for Accelerator Science and Technology (CAST) led by faculty from across the Schools of Science and Engineering that would carry out frontier R&D and have a strong educational program. The initial research focus includes development of technologies relevant to major accelerator initiatives such as the JLab 12 GeV ...
