Abstract The design and construction of the silicon strip microvertex detector (SMD) of the L3 experiment at LEP are described. We present the sensors, readout electronics, data acquisition system, mechanical assembly and support, displacement monitoring systems and radiation monitoring system of the recently installed double-sided, double-layered SMD. This detector utilizes novel and sophisticated techniques for its readout.

AbstractThe L3 detector at the CERN electron–positron collider, LEP, has been employed for the study of cosmic ray muons.The muon spectrometer of L3 consists of a set of high-precision drift chambers installed inside a magnet with avolume of about 1000 m 3 and a field of 0:5T: Muon momenta are measured with a resolution of a few percentat 50 GeV: The detector is located under 30 m of overburden. A scintillator air shower array of 54 m by 30 mis installed on the roof of the surface hall above L3 in order to estimate the energy and the core position of theshower associated with a sample of detected muons. Thanks to the unique properties of the L3þC detector, muonresearch topics relevant to various current problems in cosmic ray and particle astrophysics can be studied. r 2002Elsevier Science B.V.

Abstract The design and results from a beam test for a small vertex detector, now installed in the DESY MARK J experiment, are presented. The concept of this drift chamber is based on the time expansion principle with readout planes inclined to solve the left-right ambiguity. A spatial resolution of 35 μm, varying weakly as a function of drift length and azimuthal angle, has been achieved.

Abstract The L3 vertex detector is comprised of the time expansion chamber (TEC), the Z -chamber and a layer of plastic scintillating fibers. The TEC has shown a high spatial resolution and an excellent multi-track reconstruction capability at LEP luminosity. The Z -chamber provides information about the z -coordinates of the tracks and the fibers are used for calibrating the drift velocity with a high precision. A description of the L3 vertex detector, its readout and data acquisition and its performance during the 1990 LEP running period is presented in this paper.

The strong interaction coupling constant αs has been measured with a new method, the planar triple energy correlation in the reaction e+e- → hadrons at center-of-mass energies ranging from 14 GeV to 46.78 GeV. A complete second-order perturbative QCD calculation was used. ΛMS = 110 ± 30 −55+70 MeV is found.
