CALICE at Royal Holloway

CALICE is an international collaboration carrying out R&D towards a high granularity calorimeter for the International Linear Collider. A key requirement of an ILC detector is to obtain high resolution measurement of the energy of jets within events and this in turn requires a good "particle flow" measurement.

The Royal Holloway Centre for Particle Physics joined the collaboration in 2005.
We are taking part in three projects within the UK effort on CALICE:

  Development of a DAQ system for the calorimeter
  Test beam studies of a prototype calorimeter
  Studies of the design requirements of the calorimeter for different physics processes
