India at LHC First Large Scale Indian Participation in an International Experiment Indian accelerator research labs, led by RRCAT, Indore, and BARC, Mumbai, have contributed substantially, in kind, towards the LHC machine Indian scientists/software personnel are contributing in-kind to the development of GRID software Two groups: India-CMS & India-ALICE

Indian Participation in CMS Collaboration TIFR and Panjab University Hardware responsibilities: - Outer hadron calorimeter Ensure more hermetic calorimeter for missing energy - Silicon Pre-shower Detector. Discriminate between π 0 / to detect Higgs 2γ mode (for light Higgs favored by existing data) BARC and Delhi University 2 mm strip width sensor

HO basic design Detector element is a plastic scintillator tile which produces light when charged particles pass through it This light is collected by embedded WLS fibers Light is transported to HPD detector via clear optical fibers spliced to WLS fibers Size and placement of the tiles is matched to geometric towers in the Barrel calorimeter Tiles are grouped together and packed in “trays” for ease of handling, and 6 trays in each phi sector are in turn inserted inside aluminum honeycomb housings.

Needed for Higgs, SUSY bbA; A and CPV Higgs Search Mass peak restored after b-jet corrections A.K.Nayak, T.Aziz, A.Nikitenko Jets from Calo Towers Resolution is improved by 25 % Evaluation of b-jet energy correction from data From 10 fb -1 of data
11
Measurement of Z e Benchmark process for Higgs searches in H e mode. e + channel is clean and will be free from severe systematics inherent for jets, specially during initial phase of LHC. Will be used for normalising l +jet rates. e + combination reduces Drell-Yan background and increases signal rate. Visible mass in 100 pb-1 invariant mass: assume collinear s poor statistics since e, should not be back-to-back affects mass resolution. signal 520 event, bkg=20 S.Bansal +K.Mazumdar
