Scientific paper

The vacuum phototriode photodetectors for the endcap electromagnetic calorimeter of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the LHC must survive intense gamma and neutron irradiation. We report on measurements of radiation damage tolerance of these tubes and of component parts, particularly the glass faceplates onto which the photocathode is deposited. We demonstrate that a large number of devices can be reliably made by industry at an affordable price and that they will survive doses equivalent to ten years operation of the LHC at full design luminosity.
