Abstract
This seminar talk will briefly introduce the fundamental principles of particle detection, with a focus on calorimetry as one of the key sub-detector systems in particle physics experiments. Designs and performance of calorimeters will be explained with selected examples. The state-of-art high-granularity calorimetry for collider experiments will be followed, including the highlights and challenges in prototype developments within international collaborations. Finally, the talk will offer an outlook on the ongoing construction of the first full-scale high-granularity calorimeter (HGCAL) for the phase-2 upgrade of CMS endcap calorimeters at the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC).
About the speaker
Yong Liu is now a staff member at the Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He obtained a bachelor's degree from Wuhan University in 2006 and a doctoral degree from the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2011. As a postdoctoral research associate at Justus-Liebig University Giessen and Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz in Germany from 2011 and 2018, he worked on instrumentation technologies for ATLAS and PANDA experiments and within the CALICE collaboration. He played a leading role in the design and development of "SiPM-on-Tile" technology, which was successfully adopted for the high-granularity calorimeter upgrade (HGCAL) project of the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Since joining IHEP in 2018, he has been leading calorimeter developments for future lepton collider experiments and actively involved with silicon sensor and module integration for the CMS-HGCAL. He is also a devoted member of the international calorimetry collaborations, including the CALICE and the CERN DRD-Calo.
