Direct measurement of photons from the electron-hadron bremsstrahlung at the EIC

Direct detection of bremsstrahlung photons, in principle, offers the most straightforward and most robust method of luminosity determination at the EIC, but requires an extraordinary performance of the photon detector. In this paper, we first discuss the extreme working conditions for such detectors at the EIC and the resulting technology choices. Then, we report the initial results of Monte Carlo simulations, using Geant4, of the proposed sampling calorimeter, which is made of a copper absorber with embedded quartz fibres read out by silicon photomultipliers. Finally, the tentative requirements for appropriate readout electronics are formulated.

ATHENA Detector Proposal -- A Totally Hermetic Electron Nucleus Apparatus proposed for IP6 at the Electron-Ion Collider

ATHENA has been designed as a general purpose detector capable of delivering the full scientific scope of the Electron-Ion Collider. Careful technology choices provide fine tracking and momentum resolution, high performance electromagnetic and hadronic calorimetry, hadron identification over a wide kinematic range, and near-complete hermeticity. This article describes the detector design and its expected performance in the most relevant physics channels. It includes an evaluation of detector technology choices, the technical challenges to realizing the detector and the R&D required to meet those challenges.

The adaptive Monte Carlo toolbox for phase space integration and generation

An implementation of the Monte Carlo (MC) phase space generators coupled with adaptive MC integration/simulation program FOAM is presented. The first program is a modification of the classic phase space generator GENBOD interfaced with the adaptive sampling integrator/generator FOAM. On top of this tool the algorithm suitable for generation of the phase space for an reaction with two leading particles is presented (double-peripheral process with central production of particles). At the same time it serves as an instructive example of construction of a self-adaptive phase space generator/integrator with a modular structure for specialized particle physics calculations.

Diffractive Bremsstrahlung at High-$β^\star$ LHC Case Study

Feasibility studies of the measurement of the exclusive diffractive bremsstrahlung cross-section in proton-proton scattering at the centre of mass energy of 13 TeV at the LHC are reported. Present studies were performed for the low luminosity LHC running with the betatron function value of 90~m using the ATLAS associated forward detectors ALFA and ZDC. A simplified approach to the event simulation and reconstruction is used. The background influence is also discussed.
