S i P M W o r k s h o p @ DESY
Silicon PMs are employed in various applications in physics.
A prominent application in particle physics is their use in the hadronic calorimeter for a detector at a future linear collider (LC). During the long time of R&D the LC HCAL group has collected vast experiences in studying and operating SiPMs, especially in test beam experiments.
In the CMS Experiment at the LHC two communities are considering the use of SiPMs in detector upgrade projects.
The CMS HCAL group plans to replace the present photon-detectors, the HPDs, with SiPMs. In this case the granularity of the readout can be increased, allowing weighting algorithms to be applied for a precise energy reconstruction.
The CMS MTT (Muon Track Tag) group studies the possibility to enhance the muon trigger ability by a layer of scinitllators read out with SiPMs.
This Silicon PM Workshop serves as a platform to exchange the experiences collected in the different communities. First the different applications will be presented and properties of various sensors discussed. Later possibilities for eventual contributions to the CMS upgrade projects through third party funding will be explored.
