Performance and Operation of the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter
CMS Collaboration
TL;DR
This paper reports on the performance, stability, and operational status of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter using cosmic-ray muons, highlighting its readiness and reliability after detector closure.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive assessment of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter's performance and operational stability post-closure, based on cosmic-ray muon data.
Findings
Calorimeter channels operated reliably with minimal issues.
Operational parameters remained stable over time.
Light monitoring system effectively tracked detector status.
Abstract
The operation and general performance of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter using cosmic-ray muons are described. These muons were recorded after the closure of the CMS detector in late 2008. The calorimeter is made of lead tungstate crystals and the overall status of the 75848 channels corresponding to the barrel and endcap detectors is reported. The stability of crucial operational parameters, such as high voltage, temperature and electronic noise, is summarised and the performance of the light monitoring system is presented.
