  1. 134. New Detectors, New Physics, New Life
    Dr Erik Heijne (CERN-PH)

    Applications in Particle Physics
    Invited Talk
    A long succession of inventions of particle detectors has given life to generations of scientists and has enabled step by step the understanding of chemistry, the physics of light, matter and cosmos. Over the last hundred years the imaging of the interactions of ionizing particles has allowed to penetrate mysteries of elementary objects and forces, far beyond what we can see and feel...

    Contributed Talk
    With more than 15000 silicon strip modules and an active silicon area of 200 squaremetres, the CMS silicon strip tracker will be the largest silicon tracker ever built. While module mass production has started in 2004, the detector construction has recently entered its crucial phase with modules being assembled onto larger substructures, which in turn are being integrated into the...

    Applications in Particle Physics
    Contributed Talk
    The CDFII silicon detector with its 8 layers of double-sided silicon microstrip sensors and a total 722,432 readout channels is one of the largest silicon detector devices presently in use by a HEP experiment. We report our experience commissioning and operating this complex device during the first four years of Tevatron Run II program. The performance of the system and its impact on...

    Contributed Talk
    The ATLAS Semi-Conductor Tracker (SCT) uses silicon strip detectors to measure trajectories of charged particles coming from 14 TeV proton-proton collisions at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN. The SCT provides at least four precise space points, in the radial range of 27 to 50 cm from the beam, for tracks within the angular acceptance ||<2.5. The SCT is built up of 4088 modules,...

    Contributed Talk
    The CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) is one of the detectors designed to study the future p-p interactions of the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) accelerator at CERN. Muons from p-p collisions are expected to provide clean signatures for many of the interesting processes which will be studied at LHC. CMS has put a big emphasis on developing a highly efficient muon system. It consists of four...
