CMS FLUKA geometry v.2.0.2.0 represents the configuration of one of the proposed phase II endcap upgrades. It is based on v.2.0.0.0, the most up-to-date FLUKA model of the Run 2 situation. This includes a representation of the upgraded central beampipe, and the YE4, as well as various improvements in the FLUKA model to the muon chamber shielding. In v.2.0.2.0, the end-cap calorimeters are replaced with a preliminary model of the High Granularity Calorimeter (HGC) option and the HE rebuild (covering up to 3 in the pseudorapidity range). The image shows a zoom into the CMS forward region where the end-cap calorimeters and the CSCs ME1/1 and ME2/1 muon stations can be identified. The volume where the new GEM detectors (ME0,GE11,GE21) will be installed is currently filled with air to allow for the computation of the radiation environment. |

Primary proton-proton collisions with an energy of 7 TeV per beam. Inelastic collision cross section used for normalization is 80 mb. Used simulation cut offs: Hadrons 1 keV, Neutrons 0.01 meV, Photons 3 keV, Electrons 30 keV. Photons and Electrons have significantly higher cut-offs in some regions (heavy parts). The plot shows the neutron flux in the CMS forward region covering the end-cap calorimeters and the CSCs ME1/1 and ME2/1 muon stations, assuming an instantaneous luminosity of 5x10^34cm-2s-1. |
