Abstract
Preliminary results are presented on the activity carried out by our research group on possible application of Fiber Optic Sensor (FOS) techniques to monitor high-energy physics (HEP) detectors. Assuming that Fiber Optic radiation hardness has been deeply studied for other field of application, we have applied the FOS technology to the HEP research domain. In present paper we give the experimental evidences of the solid possibility to use such a class of sensors also in HEP detector very complex environmental side conditions. In particular we present first results of FOS measurements in the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment set up at the CERN, where we have monitored temperatures and strains in different locations by using Bragg Grating sensors during the detector operation with the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
