A calorimeter for the ILC- comparison with the LHC -
LHC & ILC provide a complementary approach
• LHC pushes the energy frontier to 14TeV for proton-proton collisions (qq, qg, gg to 0.5-5TeV)
• ILC optimised for precision measurements at an energy range 0.1-1TeV for electron-positron collisions
Physics cases for LHC and ILC and their interplay very well studied
A calorimeter for the ILC- comparison with the LHC -
LHC: pp H + X ILC: e+e- H + Z
Electron-positron collider provide a cleaner environment than hadron colliders
A calorimeter for the ILC- comparison with LEP -
• LEP ran at 90-115GeV e+e- Z and e+e- W+W- physics processes dominate Lepton machine at low energies allow kinematic
constraints for mass reconstruction Energy resolution not vital
• ILC is planned to run at the 0.5-1TeV range Backgrounds dominate Kinematic fitting not possible due to Beamstrahlung and
final states with neutrinos
ILC depends critically on the detector performance
A calorimeter for the ILC- ILC machine -
• Using superconducting accelerating structures• Collision energy between 0.2-0.5(1.0) TEV• Integrated luminosity 500 fb-1 in the first 4 years• Radiation hardness does not dictate detector design
109 n cm-2 year-1 compared to 1014 n cm-2 year-1 at the innermost detectors of the LHC
Physics drives the detector design
A calorimeter for the ILC- physics at the ILC -
ILC physics:• Higgs sector• SUSY particle spectrum• SM particle …
Physics characterised by:• High multiplicity final states(6 - 8 jets)• Small cross sections
Detector optimised for multi-jet environmentE/E = 30%/√E
A calorimeter for the ILC- effect of energy resolution -
E/E = 30%/√E (0.5 * E/E of LEP)Energy resolution directly impacts sensitivity(equates to an increase in luminosity)
e.g. benchmark process: WW scattering important to distinguish between:e+e-WWqqqq from e+e-ZZ
A calorimeter for the ILC- new approaches to calorimetry -
• Particle Flow Algorithms– Approach of the CALICE collaboration – Proposed by 2 of the 3 detector concepts

A calorimeter for the ILC- DREAM or dual readout approach -
• Uses scintillation & clear fibers
• Scintillating fibers respond to all charged particles
• Clear fibers detect e-/e+ Dual readout is able to
detect fluctuations in the energy resolution due to different response for em and hadronic part of showers
A calorimeter for the ILC- DREAM or dual readout approach -
EM shower energy correction improves energy resolution:
• Scintillator readout: 49%/√E• Cherenkov light: 86%/√E combined: 41%/√E
Can be further reduced: in bigger prototypes Measuring neutron depositions
Technology not yet advanced enough, however at high jet energies clearly a contender

A calorimeter for the ILC- Particle Flow Algorithms (PFA) -
Particles in jets Fraction of energy
Measured with Resolution [2]
Charged 65 % Tracker Negligible
Photons 25 % ECAL with 15%/√E 0.072 Ejet
Neutral Hadrons 10 % ECAL + HCAL with 50%/√E
0.162 Ejet
Confusion ≤ 0.042 (goal)
Traditional calorimetry limited by HCAL energy resolutionUse the information provided by the whole detector to improve the energy resolution
A calorimeter for the ILC- Particle Flow Algorithms (PFA)-
• Need to be able to match energy deposits and particle tracks
High granularity calorimeter supported by software
• Problem: in a multijet environment energy from the same particle can be double counted or energy deposits from different particles not properly separated
Gives rise to the confusion term Optimize lateral/longitudinal segmentation & software
A calorimeter for the ILC- Particle Flow Approach (PFA)-
Optimise the detector for Particle Flow:ECAL• Lateral segmentation
= Moliere radius = 1cm for Si/W ECAL• Longitudinal segmentation
= about 1 radiation length (in total 30 layers = 24X0)HCAL:• Lateral segmentation less clear (about 1cm)• Longitudinal size limited by constraints that HCAL is
inside the magnetic coil= 4-5 interaction lengths
A calorimeter for the ILC- testing the PFA approach -
• Behaviour in test beams needs to be tested MC predictions can be related to real data PFA predictions can be tested new methods can be developed
• several options for the detector technology possible these options need to be investigated in testbeams
• High number of readout channels -> more pressure on DAQ a reliable DAQ system needs to be tested
CALICE collaboration’s goal to test feasibility of PFA
