Description
The student will participate in various activities related to the integration of the CMS Phase-2 Tracker Endcap.
The integration of detector modules onto the supporting mechanical structure brings various chal- lenges that have to be addressed. The thermal coupling of the PS detector modules using a thermal interface material has to be established. Candidate materials are being studied. The thermal and mechanical properties are evaluated and material application techniques have to be developed und conjunction with a module integration procedure that needs to be established. The quantification of the thermal conductivity of various materials used in the detector construction is needed, using a dedicated measurement setup. Module integration needs to be exercised including service routing.
These ongoing activities provide ample opportunities for a student to engage in hands on activities in the detector construction. Exact task descriptions have to be defined close in time depending on the progress of the project.
