Studies on surface-mounted SiPMs in 2015 testbeam of a highly granular hadron calorimeter — •Sascha Krause for the CALICE-D collaboration — Institut für Physik, Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Mainz, Germany

To achieve excellent jet energy resolution, a highly granular hadronic calorimeter is being developed within the CALICE collaboration. Therefore, about 8 million detector units consisting of scintillator tiles and silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) will be installed in the final HCAL design. The usage of surface-mounted (SMD) SiPMs allows an automated mass assembly. During CERN SPS testbeam 2015, data for a prototype consisting of up to 11 layers of HCAL base units (HBU) was collected using electron, muon and pion beams. One of the layers was equipped with the first SMD HBU. Results and performance, especially of the SMD HBU will be presented.
