Dual-readout calorimetry with homogeneous crystals

Instrumentation and Detectors 2024-08-23 v1

Abstract

High resolution calorimetry with state-of-the-art energy resolution performance for both electromagnetic (EM) and hadronic signals can be achieved using the dual-readout (DR) technique, both in a homogeneous scintillating-crystal calorimeter and in a traditional fiber and absorber-based DR hadronic section. We present results from the CalVision consortium studying the collection of Cerenkov and scintillation signals in PbWO4_4 and BGO crystal samples exposed to 120\,GeV proton beams at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility, including proof-of-principle measurements aimed at demonstrating the identification of a sufficiently large Cerenkov signal in homogeneous scintillating crystals to support dual-readout capability.
