ENGINEERING DESIGN REVIEW (EDR) FOR THE TOTEM ROMAN POTS (Thursday 24 Nov. 2005) E. Métral • Charge to the Review Committee (from E. Tsesmelis, TS/LEA) • Check that the TOTEM Roman Pots perform according to the intended specifications • Endorse the general scenario for the engineering design, assembly and mounting of the TOTEM Roman Pots • Approve the TOTEM Roman Pot concept to allow detailed engineering drawings and technical specifications to proceed • Check the project organization, safety issues and compatibility with neighboring (machine) systems
The TOTEM Experiment at LHC Forward Physics at Interaction Point 5 • Elastic p-p scattering • Total p-p cross section • Diffractive physics • Absolute luminosity measurement • Needs detection of leading protons with very small scattering angles (few μrad)
ROMAN POT DESIGN (2/13) • The Roman Pot, an historically proven technique for near beam physics: ISR, SPS, TEVATRON, RICH, DESY • A CERN in-house technology: ISR, SPS-UA4, CDF CERN for CDF CERN for SPS (UA4)
ROMAN POT DESIGN (3/13) Constraints/Requirements for TOTEM • Very close to the beam operation (10σ ~ 0.8mm) • Secondary vacuum separation for detectors and cables (no outgassing) • High mechanical reliability of the thin window on the pot • Shielding of RF pick-up on the detector/electronics • High resolution, precision and repeatability of the movements
ROMAN POT DESIGN (4/13) • Roman Pots are in many aspects identical to the LHC collimators • Movable devices in the LHC beam • Almost the same requirements for vacuum and RF • Close to the beam operation ~ 10σ • Same Engineering Team (TS-MME group at CERN) • Same movements (motors, resolvers, positioning detectors, drivers) • Same controls hardware/software through the LHC Control room
RF ISSUES (2/2) Ferrite
VACUUM ISSUES • Synchrotron radiation is the main gas source (referring to a paper by FZ: There is indeed SR in the outgoing line of the beam as well, due to reflection along the beam pipe) Bakeout (150o C) mandatory NEG coating on the RP chamber (requires activation at 200o C)
