BARC + Panjab Univ.
SLIDE 7 Tile with 4-s groove 5 to 6 tiles in
- tray. Fibres ganged together to
form pigtail, to be connected via clear fibres to photo detector Pigtail with connector
side by side in a HO housing
Controls at each step. eg, MIP signal using cosmic muons.
- One HO module being installed on a muon ring on
surface (2006) non-trivial coordination with others.
- 3-4 personnel from India at CERN at a given time for
Installation, monitoring detector health at every stage.
HO detector Responsibility: fabrication of scintillator detectors and quality controls.
SLIDE 8 HO detectors, alongwith muon stations,being lowered down the shaft to underground area
In the underground pit
- Efficiency of HO detectors during
2010 data taking : about 97%

Site performance
SLIDE 13 Key to grid computing: network bandwidth
- Dedicated P2P link between CERN and India since several years.
presently 1Gbps, likely to be upgraded
- With requirements of CMS computing (different from ALICE), connection
to other T1s achieved (8 more) via peering at CERN end.
- Other internet facilities are improving continuously in recent times
Significant for site performance, connected to other T2s.
- Site taken up for hosting important data streams.
- Hubs hosted at TIFR, maintained jointly by CDAC + TIFR.
Presently other centres / institutes connected to outside world via TIFR
- With NKN connections fully operational in the country in near future,
site expected to play bigger role for LHC data analysis by collaborating

Physics Menu chosen at present
SLIDE 19 There is lot of interesting physics in every collision
- Detailed understanding of softer processes Discovery in hard, rare processes
- CMS measures (almost) everything beautifully excellent physics output!
SLIDE 20 Hadronic event shape variables
Agree with Pythia6, Pythia8 and Herwig++ , Disagree with Madgraph and Alpgen Central thrust Thrust minor

3.2pb−1 CERN-PH-EP-2010-072 To be publishd in PLB
SLIDE 21 UE measurement using Track-based Jets
- 7 TeV and 900 GeV results including tunes for soft QCD: D6T and DW predictions
- Charged multiplicity density and pT density profiles.
- Fast rise for pT< 8 GeV/c (4 GeV/c) increase of MPI activity
- Plateau-like region (≈ constant average number of particles + slow increase of pT)
saturation regime
- MPIIncrease of the UE activity with energy
- Stat. dominating
at high pT Headed for publication in JHEP
SLIDE 22 UE measurement using Drell-Yan events @ 7 TeV
- Cleanest process to measure UE!
Everything excluding two leptons is UE.
- Unlike leading jet case, there is no colored FSR.
- Scale is set by Z pT and lowest scale is set by Z mass.
- For discovery, UE need to be measured for reasonably hard events, not possible,
using hadronic final states.
- Away region is affected by away jet, which balances Z pT.
- Transverse and toward regions are most sensitive for UE studies

SLIDE 27 A Personal Conclusion
- Proud to be Indian AND in CMS experiment!
- CMS experiment is doing very well and the harvest is very
- encouraging. We have a very exciting time ahead.
- LHC is at the dawn of a new era in high energy physics.
- LHC has already changed our lifestyle!
- LHC will change the way mankind thinks of the universe.
- Due to timely initiatives of previous generation of scientists at
both ends today we participate in the world-wide front ranking efforts.
- The potential of Indian contribution in CMS is huge and
recognized already, but more needs to be done in to harness it completely. I will do my best in this regard.
