CMS physics technical design report: Addendum on high density QCD with heavy ions
d'Enterria, D.; Ballintijn, M.; Bedjidian, M.; Hofman, D.; Kodolova, O.; Loizides, C.; Lokthin, I. P.; Lourenço, C.; Mironov, C.; Petrushanko, S. V.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T20:22:10Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2007-11-01; This report presents the capabilities of the CMS experiment to explore the rich heavy-ion physics programme offered by the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collisions of lead nuclei at energies , will probe quark and gluon matter at unprecedented values of energy density. The prime goal of this res...
Measurement of the n_TOF beam profile with a micromegas detector
Pancin, J.; Abbondanno, U.; Aerts, G.; Alvarez, H.; Andriamonje, S.; Angelopoulos, A.; Assimakopoulos, P.; Bacri, C.; Badurek, G.; Baumann, P.A Micromegas detector was used in the neutron Time-Of-Flight (n_TOF) facility at CERN to evaluate the spatial distribution of the neutron beam as a function of its kinetic energy. This was achieved over a large range of neutron energies by using two complementary processes: at low energy by capture of a neutron via the 6Li(n,[alpha])t reaction, and at high energy by elastic scattering of neutrons on gas nuclei ...
