The CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter at the LHC

Instrumentation and Detectors 2008-10-06 v2 High Energy Physics - Experiment

Abstract

The CMS detector at the LHC is in the final stages of preparation. The high resolution Electromagnetic Calorimeter, which consists of nearly 76000 lead tungstate crystals, will play a crucial role in the coming physics searches undertaken by CMS. The design, status, and initial performance of the calorimeter, in test beams and with cosmic rays, will be reviewed.
