Pisa Meeting on Advanced Detectors’da bildiri olarak sunulmuştur.Silicon Avalanche Photo-diodes (APDs) working in proportional were chosen as a readout device for the PbWO4 crystals in the barrel of the CMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter (ECAL). During 10 years of operation, the CMS ECAL will be exposed to 2 x 10(13) neutrons/cm(2) under a severe radiation environment. In this study, we studied on the effect of photo-statistical fluctuations from those of neutrons by using Geant4 toolkit.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessInstruments & instrumentationNuclear science & technologyPhysicsPhoto-statistical fluctuationsAvalanche photo-diodeGeant4 simulationAvalanche photodiodesSiliconScienceLead compoundsNeutronsStatistical mechanicsElectromagnetic calorimeterGEANT4 simulationGeant4 toolkitsPbWO4 crystalsRadiation environmentsSignal fluctuationsSilicon avalancheStatistical fluctuationsAvalanche diodesArticle0003205969000652-s2.0-84887828072215216718Instruments & instrumentationNuclear science & technologyPhysics, nuclearPhysics, particles & fieldsAvalanche Photodiodes; Dark Currents; Calorimeters
