Title A Few-Degree Calorimeter for the future Electron-Ion Collider
Abstract Measuring the region 0.1 < Q 2 < 1.0 GeV2 is essential to support searches for gluon saturation at the future Electron-Ion Collider. Recent studies have revealed that covering this region at the highest beam energies is not feasible with current detector designs, resulting in the so-called Q 2 gap. In this work, we present a design for the Few-Degree Calorimeter (FDC), which addresses this issue. The FDC uses SiPM-on-tile technology with tungsten absorber and covers the range of ?4.6 < ? < ?3.6. It offers fine transverse and longitudinal granularity, along with excellent time resolution, enabling standalone electron tagging. Our design represents the first concrete solution to bridge the Q 2 gap at the EIC.
