Due to space limitation the barrel calorimeters do not contain completely the hadronic shower and an outer calorimeter (HO) was designed, constructed and inserted in the muon system of CMS to measure the energy leakage. Testing and calibration of the HO was carried out in a 300 GeV/c test beam that improved the linearity and resolution. HO will provide a net improvement in missing E T measurements at LHC energies. Information from HO will also be used for the muon trigger in CMS. © 2008 Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica.Article Citation - WoS: 32Citation - Scopus: 34The Cms Barrel Calorimeter Response To Particle Beams From 2 To 350 Gev/C(Springer Verlag, 2009) CMS HCAL/ECAL Collaborations; Sönmez, NasufThe response of the CMS barrel calorimeter (electromagnetic plus hadronic) to hadrons, electrons and muons over a wide momentum range from 2 to 350 GeV/c has been measured. To our knowledge, this is the widest range of momenta in which any calorimeter system has been studied. These tests, carried out at the H2 beam-line at CERN, provide a wealth of information, especially at low energies. The analysis of the differences in calorimeter response to charged pions, kaons, protons and antiprotons and a detailed discussion of the underlying phenomena are presented. We also show techniques that apply corrections to the signals from the considerably different electromagnetic (EB) and hadronic (HB) barrel calorimeters in reconstructing the energies of hadrons. Above 5 GeV/c, these corrections improve the energy resolution of the combined system where the stochastic term equals 84.7 ± 1.6% and the constant term is 7.4 ± 0.8%. The corrected mean response remains constant within 1.3% rms. © Springer-Verlag / Società Italiana di Fisica 2009.Correction Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 2Erratum: the Cms Barrel Calorimeter Response To Particle Beams From 2 To 350 Gev/C (the European Physical Journal C (2009) 60 (359-373) Doi: 10.1140/Epjc(Springer Verlag, 2009) Karapınar, Güler[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 23Citation - Scopus: 24Signals of Doubly-Charged Higgsinos at the Cern Large Hadron Collider(American Physical Society, 2008) Demir, Durmuş Ali; Frank, Mariana; Huitu, Katri; Rai, Santosh Kumar; Turan, İsmailSeveral supersymmetric models with extended gauge structures, motivated by either grand unification or by neutrino mass generation, predict light doubly-charged Higgsinos. In this work we study productions and decays of doubly-charged Higgsinos present in left-right supersymmetric models, and show that they invariably lead to novel collider signals not found in the minimal supersymmetric model or in any of its extensions motivated by the μ problem or even in extra dimensional theories. We investigate their distinctive signatures at the Large Hadron Collider in both pair- and single-production modes, and show that they are powerful tools in determining the underlying model via the measurements at the Large Hadron Collider experiments. © 2008 The American Physical SocietyArticle Citation - WoS: 775Citation - Scopus: 759CMS physics technical design report, volume II: Physics performance(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2007) Demir, Durmuş Ali; Karapınar, GülerCMS is a general purpose experiment, designed to study the physics of pp collisions at 14 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It currently involves more than 2000 physicists from more than 150 institutes and 37 countries. The LHC will provide extraordinary opportunities for particle physics based on its unprecedented collision energy and luminosity when it begins operation in 2007. The principal aim of this report is to present the strategy of CMS to explore the rich physics programme offered by the LHC. This volume demonstrates the physics capability of the CMS experiment. The prime goals of CMS are to explore physics at the TeV scale and to study the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking - through the discovery of the Higgs particle or otherwise. To carry out this task, CMS must be prepared to search for new particles, such as the Higgs boson or supersymmetric partners of the Standard Model particles, from the start-up of the LHC since new physics at the TeV scale may manifest itself with modest data samples of the order of a few fb-1 or less. The analysis tools that have been developed are applied to study in great detail and with all the methodology of performing an analysis on CMS data specific benchmark processes upon which to gauge the performance of CMS. These processes cover several Higgs boson decay channels, the production and decay of new particles such as Z′ and supersymmetric particles, Bs production and processes in heavy ion collisions. The simulation of these benchmark processes includes subtle effects such as possible detector miscalibration and misalignment. Besides these benchmark processes, the physics reach of CMS is studied for a large number of signatures arising in the Standard Model and also in theories beyond the Standard Model for integrated luminosities ranging from 1 fb-1 to 30 fb-1. The Standard Model processes include QCD, B-physics, diffraction, detailed studies of the top quark properties, and electroweak physics topics such as the W and Z0 boson properties. The production and decay of the Higgs particle is studied for many observable decays, and the precision with which the Higgs boson properties can be derived is determined. About ten different supersymmetry benchmark points are analysed using full simulation. The CMS discovery reach is evaluated in the SUSY parameter space covering a large variety of decay signatures. Furthermore, the discovery reach for a plethora of alternative models for new physics is explored, notably extra dimensions, new vector boson high mass states, little Higgs models, technicolour and others. Methods to discriminate between models have been investigated. This report is organized as follows. Chapter 1, the Introduction, describes the context of this document. Chapters 2-6 describe examples of full analyses, with photons, electrons, muons, jets, missing E T, B-mesons and τ's, and for quarkonia in heavy ion collisions. Chapters 7-15 describe the physics reach for Standard Model processes, Higgs discovery and searches for new physics beyond the Standard Model.Article Citation - WoS: 115Citation - Scopus: 141Cms Physics Technical Design Report: Addendum on High Density Qcd With Heavy Ions(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2007) Demir, Durmuş Ali; Karapınar, GülerThis report presents the capabilities of the CMS experiment to explore the rich heavy-ion physics programme offered by the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collisions of lead nuclei at energies , will probe quark and gluon matter at unprecedented values of energy density. The prime goal of this research is to study the fundamental theory of the strong interaction - Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) - in extreme conditions of temperature, density and parton momentum fraction (low-x). This report covers in detail the potential of CMS to carry out a series of representative Pb-Pb measurements. These include "bulk" observables, (charged hadron multiplicity, low pT inclusive hadron identified spectra and elliptic flow) which provide information on the collective properties of the system, as well as perturbative probes such as quarkonia, heavy-quarks, jets and high pT hadrons which yield "tomographic" information of the hottest and densest phases of the reaction.Master Thesis Higher Curvature Gravity in Large Extra Dimension: Phenomenological Implications(Izmir Institute of Technology, 2007) Tanyıldızı, Şükrü Hanif; Demir, Durmuş AliThis thesis is devoted to a detailed study of the higher curvature gravity and its phenomenological implications in large extra dimensions. This work is intended as a discussion of effective interactions among brane matter induced by modifications of higher dimensional Einstein gravity via the replacement of Einstein-Hilbert term with a generic function f(R) of the curvature scalar R.In this work, following the introductory chapters on extra dimensions and higher curvature gravity in large extra dimensions, we derive the graviton propagator and then we analyze impact of virtual graviton exchange on interactions among brane matter. We find that f(R) gravity effects are best probed by high-energy processes involving massivegauge bosons, heavy fermions or the Higgs boson. We perform a comparative analysis of the predictions of f(R) gravity and of Arkani.Hamed, Dimopoulos and Dvali (ADD) scenario, and find that the former competes with the latter when f00(0) is positive and comparable to the fundamental scale of gravity in higher dimensions (Demir and Tanyıldızı 2006). In addition, we briefly discuss graviton emission from the brane as well as itsdecays into brane-localized matter and we find that they hardly compete with the ADD expectations.Consequently, we discussed that possible existence of higher-curvature gravitational interactions in large extra spatial dimensions opens up various signatures to be confronted with existing and future collider experiments.
