Cosmic ray teststand for the CASTOR calorimeter of CMS — •Dilson de Jesus Damiao1, Monika Grothe2, and Alberto Santoro11Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (UERJ), Brazil — 2University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA

The very forward region of the CMS experiment at the LHC will house a quartz-tungsten sampling calorimeter CASTOR ("Centauro And STrange Object Research) with rapidity coverage 5.1<|eta|<6.6. CASTOR will add considerably to the forward physics reach of CMS in both proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions. We report on the setup and operation of a teststand for calibrating the calorimeter response with the help of mip signals originating from muons in cosmic-ray-initiated particle showers.
