SiPM – Readout of Barrel Calorimeter

• Geometry 4x4 array of 3x3mm SiPM tiles• Pixel size 50 mm, 57600 pixels per array• Detection Efficiency > 20%• Gain ~ 106

• Not sensitive to strong magnetic field• Noise ~ 20 MHz for full array• Total Number of SiPMs 3840

SiPM shows an excellent photon-counting capability and the pixels fired has a very linear dependence on the input light intensity.

Individual photon peaks can also be clearly identified.

BCAL uses a Pb/SciFi matrix design to have both a compact size and a very good energy resolution.

Calorimeter

A 390 cm long Electromagnetic Barrel Calorimeter (BCAL) is inserted into the solenoid which generates a 2.2 Tesla magnetic field to detect particles in large angles. It measures energy deposition between 50 MeV to 5 GeV and provides timing and position information.

SiPM (Silicon Photo Multiplier) is a new type of photon-counting device made up of multiple APD (Avalanche PhotoDiode) pixels operating in Geiger mode. Each APD pixel outputs a pulse signal when it detects one photon, and the output of the SiPM is the total sum of all the pixels.
