- The photons from Higgs decays are detected by the electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL). I plus PhD student played a major role in the design, evaluation and commissioning of the endcap ECAL photodetectors. With a second PhD student I built a 4T magnet photodetector acceptance test facility. A third PhD student, a Brunel PDRA and I contributed to monitoring of their performance during LHC operation. I operated the UK facility for 60-cobalt radiation damage evaluation of prototype lead tungstate scintillating crystals which confirmed their suitability for the entire ECAL of CMS. I reviewed the paper and critiqued it for important intellectual content.
