我们提出的束流测试的结果与高能量（8-375 GeV）的电子，π介子，质子和μ子的采样量能器的基础上检测的簇射粒子产生的切伦科夫光。该探测器是CMS实验中非常向前的量热计的原型，由嵌入铜基体中的薄石英纤维组成。结果给出了该装置的光产额，对电子和强子探测的能量分辨率，信号的均匀性和线性。信号产生机制赋予了这种类型的探测器独特的特性，特别是对于强子簇射的探测：窄，浅的簇射轮廓和极快的信号。详细测量了这些具体性能。在高速率，高辐射的大型强子对撞机（LHC）环境中的测量的影响进行了讨论。
We present the results of beam tests with high-energy (8–375 GeV) electrons, pions, protons and muons of a sampling calorimeter based on the detection of Cherenkov light produced by shower particles. The detector, a prototype for the very forward calorimeters in the CMS experiment, consists of thin quartz fibers embedded in a copper matrix. Results are given on the light yield of this device, on its energy resolution for electron and hadron detection, and on the signal uniformity and linearity. The signal generation mechanism gives this type of detector unique properties, especially for the detection of hadron showers: narrow, shallow shower profiles and extremely fast signals. These specific properties were measured in detail. The implications for measurements in the high-rate, high-radiation Large Hadron Collider (LHC) environment are discussed.
