2. Calorimetry and gaps

Mike Ronan

How important are gaps between the calorimeter components? How important are gaps between the calorimeters and other components such as the TPC? What is the penalty for a round TPC inside an octagonal ECAL, if any? How efficient is the TPC for detecting backscattered particles. How important are these? What is the optimal transition barrel – end cap done? Is the current scheme of a long...

1. The B-field and the tracker

What quality of the field do we need in the TPC, SIT, and other detectors? How can we measure and monitor the field distortions at the required level of accuracy? Can the large distortions in the large crossing angle be accounted for? Can control samples be used to improve the knowledge of the field map? Does it make sense to eliminate the plug, at the cost of a shorter magnet and thus a less...
