Calorimetry Detector Research and Development for the International Linear Collider

国际直线对撞机(ILC)项目有望成为下一个世界范围的粒子物理设施。它的加速器将以500GeV到1TeV的能量将电子与正电子相撞。虽然欧洲核子研究中心的大型强子对撞机(LHC)已经发现了希格斯粒子，并帮助理解了质量的起源，但ILC将在扩大这些发现并对这些粒子、它们的性质和相互作用模式进行精确测量方面发挥关键作用。这两个设施具有很强的互补性，都是探索和推动我们物理世界最基本的理论所必需的。目前，全世界都在为实现这些目标而进行密集的努力。加速器和探测器设计报告已于2013年完成。国际劳工大会的举办地已经选定在日本。在国际社会的支持下，日本希望能够在2016年提出第一批政治决定。基于粒子流算法技术和高粒度探测器的新型热量计已经并仍在开发中。构建了ILC探测器的原型并进行了测试。这些活动由国际Calice协作协调。研究人员正在实现前所未有的喷射能量分辨率和实际的粒子量热跟踪。加拿大人于2005年加入了Calice，他们已经为这项工作做出了与他们的人数不成比例的贡献。*我们希望能够继续我们在量热计原型方面的工作，按要求获取测试束的数据，并对探测器响应进行主要的物理分析。我们必须对结果进行全面评估，并准备将其纳入ILC探测器所需的最终设计中。这需要对不同类型的粒子做出详细的反应，充分校准，能量和空间分辨率性能特征，以及开发算法来支持它们。

The International Linear Collider (ILC) project is expected to be the next world-wide particle physics facility. Its accelerators will collide electrons on positrons at energies from 500 GeV up to 1 TeV. While the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has discovered the Higgs and helps understand the origin of mass, the ILC will be essential in extending these discoveries and making precision measurements on these particles, their properties and modes of interaction. The two facilities are highly complementary and are both needed to probe and push the most fundamental theories of our physical world.******Intensive world-wide efforts are currently pursued toward these objectives. Accelerator and detector design reports have been completed in 2013. A site has been selected in Japan to host the ILC. With international support, Japan hopes to be able to present the first political decisions in 2016.******Novel calorimeters based on particle flow algorithm techniques and high granularity detectors have been and are still developed. Prototypes were constructed and tested for the ILC detectors. These activities are coordinated by the international CALICE collaboration. Researchers are achieving unprecedented jet energy resolution and actual particle calorimetry tracking. Canadians have joined CALICE in 2005 and have already contributed to the effort out of proportion to their number.******We would like to be able to continue our work on calorimeter prototypes, taking data at test beams as required and performing major physics analysis of the detector responses. We have to establish the full evaluation of the results and prepare for their integration into the final designs required by the ILC detectors. This entails detailed response to the different type of particles, full calibration, energy and space resolution performances characteristics, as well as development of algorithms to sustain them all.
