In this paper we present the time resolution measurements of the Lutetium- Yttrium Oxyorthosilicate (LYSO) calorimeter prototype for the Mu2e experi- ment. The measurements have been performed using the e− beam of the Beam Test Facility (BTF) in Frascati, Italy in the energy range from 100 to 400 MeV. The calorimeter prototype consisted of twenty five 30x30x130 mm3, LYSO crys- tals read out by 10x10 mm2 Hamamatsu Avalanche Photodiodes (APDs). The energy dependence of the measured time resolution can be parametrized as σt(E) = a/E/GeV⊕b, with the stochastic and constant terms a = (51±1) ps and b = (10 ± 4) ps, respectively. This corresponds to the time resolution of (162 ± 4) ps at 100 MeV.

Abstract
In this paper we present the time resolution measurements of the Lutetium- Yttrium Oxyorthosilicate (LYSO) calorimeter prototype for the Mu2e experi- ment. The measurements have been performed using the e− beam of the Beam Test Facility (BTF) in Frascati, Italy in the energy range from 100 to 400 MeV. The calorimeter prototype consisted of twenty five 30x30x130 mm3, LYSO crys- tals read out by 10x10 mm2 Hamamatsu Avalanche Photodiodes (APDs). The energy dependence of the measured time resolution can be parametrized as σt(E) = a/E/GeV⊕b, with the stochastic and constant terms a = (51±1) ps and b = (10 ± 4) ps, respectively. This corresponds to the time resolution of (162 ± 4) ps at 100 MeV.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
