INTERNATIONAL AND INTERSECTORAL MOBILITY TO DEVELOP ADVANCED SCINTILLATING FIBRES AND CERENKOV FIBRES FOR NEW HADRON AND JET CALORIMETERS FOR FUTURE COLLIDERS
This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 644260
INTELUM is a European Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research and Innovation Staff Exchange (RISE) and International and Intersectoral mobility to develop advanced scintillating and Cerenkov fibres for new hadron and jet calorimeters for future colliders. Project start: March 2015 (for a duration of 4 years) Coordinator: CERN (Switzerland), jointly with Intelligentsia Consultants (Luxembourg) Core activities: research and innovation staff exchange (the scientists will be visiting their partners in order to exchange their knowledge and gain experience)

Currently, new concepts are being considered for hadron and jet calorimetry in high energy physics experiments, in order to improve the energy resolution of these detectors by a factor of at least two. This is a prerequisite for future studies at the high luminosity, large hadron collider as well as at future electron and proton
fibres are considered very promising candidates. The INTELUM project funds international, industry-academia exchanges to develop micro-pulling-down crystal growth and other new types of fibre technology. This new fibre production technology has the potential to enable fast, low-cost, manufacture of heavy crystal scintillating fibres. In order to prove the new fibre technology concept, two key technical issues will be addressed during the project:
demonstrate feasibility of producing between 20-200km of fibres with consistent
quality and well defined production costs;
demonstrate sufficient radiation hardness of the fibres that the degradation of
their optical properties is below 10% at 1 MGy level.
