Time-Of-Flight detectors

During the High Luminosity phase of LHC, up to 200 proton-proton collisions per bunch crossing will bring severe challenges for event reconstruction. To mitigate pileup effects, an extended upgrade program of the CMS experiment is expected. Among which, a new timing layer, the MIP Timing Detector (MTD), will be integrated between the tracker and the calorimeters. With a time resolution of...
The increase of the particle flux (pile-up) at the HL-LHC with instantaneous luminosities up to L ≃ $7.5 × 10^{34} cm^{−2}s^{−1}$ will have a severe impact on the ATLAS detector reconstruction and trigger performance. The end-cap and forward region where the liquid Argon calorimeter has coarser granularity and the inner tracker has poorer momentum resolution will be particularly affected. A...
The Electron-Ion Collider (EIC), currently under development at Brookhaven National Laboratory, will provide unprecedented opportunities to study the internal structure of nucleons and nuclei. To exploit the full potential of the EIC physics program, excellent particle identification (PID) capabilities are required across a wide kinematic range. The ePIC experiment, the primary detector at the...
