  11. Stretching CMS Pb-Pb mm Detector designed for pp. However due to flexible design offers unique capabilities for AA 18th Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics 01/26/02 Edwin Norbeck University of Iowa

  12. Some CMS Assets • CMS has excellent muon detection capabilities: • |h|<1.3 for barrel and |h|<2.4 with endcaps. • Good mass resolution: 46 MeV for the Upsilon. • Efficient suppression of background from p/K decays: • Electromagnetic calorimeter at 1.3 m from beam axis. • PT threshold at 3.5 GeV/c for a single muon to reach the m-chambers. • Large calorimeter coverage with good jet reconstruction capabilities. 18th Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics 01/26/02 Edwin Norbeck University of Iowa

  13. Selected Physics Topicsfirst physics studies by CMS • Event Characterization • Quarkonium Production: Upsilon and J/Y in the barrel • Z detection • Jet Production: • Single/Double jet ratios, jet quenching • Z and g tagged jets • Ultra-Peripheral Collisions: gg and g-Pomeron Muon detector Calorimetry 18th Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics 01/26/02 Edwin Norbeck University of Iowa

  15. Tracking 60 Detector Pitch mm • Developed for dNch/dy=8000 and dN0/dy=4000. • Track only particles with tracks in m detector. • Use m-chambers tracks as seeds. • Use only tracking detector providing 3D space points.

  23. Beam-beam interactions • Hadronic nuclear interactions • Electromagnetic dissociation • Ion is excited by a - nucleon interaction (mostly by the giant dipole resonance) and subsequently decays. • Electron capture to form H-like ion • A two-photon process creates an electron-positron pair with the electron retained in an atomic orbit (mostly the K-shell). • Magnetic-monopole production? 18th Winter Workshop on Nuclear Dynamics 01/26/02 Edwin Norbeck University of Iowa

  25.
