Abstract
The upgrade of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) crystal electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL), which will operate at the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), will achieve a timing resolution of around 30 ps for high energy photons and electrons. In this talk we will discuss the benefits of precision timing for the ECAL event reconstruction at HL-LHC. Simulation studies focused on the timing properties of PbWO4 crystals, as well as the impact of the photosensors and the readout electronics on the timing performance, will be presented. Test beam studies intended to measure the timing performance of the PbWO4 crystals with different photosensors and readout electronics will be shown.

In this talk we will discuss the benefits of precision timing for the ECAL event reconstruction at HL-LHC
The intrinsic time resolution of the ECAL crystals has been measured in test beams, obtaining a constant term of the time resolution as a function of the amplitude of about 20 ps, measured using neighboring crystals from the same electromagnetic shower
