IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium Nov , San Diego, CA Professor Priscilla Cushman University of Minnesota Conclusions 5 years ago, no existing technology could satisfy our specifications. Development project was initiated with one Company - DEP with backup plans which included Hamamatsu and Litton Rigorous evaluation must include accelerated aging and test beams and enough prototype detectors to understand the yield. The anticipated problems are not the ones that really bite you. This takes time! In the last year, the HPD subsystem has approached “critical path” in the CMS Project. Final Result : CMS HCAL gets what it needs (so we can find the Higgs) and a better product is offered to the general public.
