Le résumé fourni par la source
The Fast Beam Condition Monitor (BCM1F) has been used at the CMS Experiment since the first LHC circulating beams in 2008. Originally meant as a beam-induced background monitor for fast beam losses detection, it showed a potential also for luminosity measurements in 2012 running, and has been used for luminosity measurements since the beginning of Run 2 data taking in 2015 as a part of the Beam Radiation, Instrumentation and Luminosity (BRIL) system. Over the years, the system has undergone various upgrades to the sensors, the front-end and back-end electronics, providing improvements in the precision of the measurements, that remain valid in the higher pileup conditions of LHC Run 3 (2022-2026). Based on the experience of all BCM1F Run 2 upgrades, the detector was completely rebuilt prior to LHC Run 3 using AC-coupled silicon-pad diodes and active cooling. This latest detector version exhibits excellent linearity with instantaneous luminosity and achieves nanosecond-level timing precision, enabling improved systematic corrections for luminosity and background measurements. This paper presents a detailed overview of the detector system for LHC Run 3, including the selection and qualification of sensors as well as a summary of the readout system. It also outlines the processing and calibration strategy for luminosity data, discussing operational hurdles and comparing BCM1F measurements to other CMS luminosity measurements to assess the system's performance as a luminometer. Lastly, the implications for the design of a future luminosity detector to be used in the envisioned HL-LHC upgrade are discussed.
