  1. MWPC requirements Engineering Design Review April 16th 2003 Werner Riegler CERN Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  2. LHCb Muon System 5 muon stations, one in front (M1), 4 behind (M2-M5) the calorimeter A muon trigger requires the coincidence of hits in all 5 stations within the bunchcrossing time of 25ns in a certain spatial window that selects the muon momentum. Granularity 1x2 cm to 10x20cm. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  4. Detector 2 chamber layers are connected into one frontend. 4 layers of MWPCs are combined into one station. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  5. Difference to ATLAS, CMS The ATLAS Cathode Strip Chambers are intended for position resolution. Amplifier peaking time 80ns, bipolar shaping, ‘crosstalk intended’ on cathode strips for center of gravity. The CMS Cathode Strip Chambers are intended for position resolution (cathodes strips) and timing (wires). Cathode amplifier peaking time 100ns, wire amplifier peaking time 30ns. The LHCb MWPCs are intended for highly efficient timing within a certain spatial granularity at the LVL0 trigger. Amplifier peaking time of 10ns, pulse width<50ns, unipolar shaping, low crosstalk. Since crosstalk is  RinCpp and since  (20 MHz) is high we have to minimize the pad-pad capacitance Cpp and amplifier input impedance Rin. Because we want unipolar shaping we need a baseline restorer in the front end. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  9. Ionization Statistics Because the primary ionization statistics I.e. Poisson distributed cluster number =exponentially distributed distance between clusters around average of 0.23mm the Time resolution doesn’t improve for pitch <1.5mm. This is a fundamental limit of time resolution for an MWPC at 1bar. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  15. Sensitivity of the performance on chamber imperfections • The drift velocity is saturated I.e. it has a very weak dependence on the electric field. Therefore we mainly worry about gas gain variations that can move the working point within the plateau. • If G0 is the nominal gas gain, we want the gas gain in 95% of the area of a single gap to be within G0/1.25 and G0*1.25 I. e. between 0.8G0 and 1.25G0. • The remaining 5% of the area should have a gain within a factor 1.5 I.e. • between 0.67G0 and 1.5G0 • A gain change of a factor 1.25(1.50) corresponds to Voltage change of 34(62)V on top of the 2750V corresponding to 1.25(2.25)%. • The gas gain changes by a factor 1.25(1.5) if the wire surface field changes by 1.25(2.25)%. •  What chamber imperfections are allowed in order to keep the wire surface field within 1.25(2.25)% ?

  17. The entire wire plane has to be within 370(490)m in y direction. The cathode - cathode has to be within 113(202)m. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  18.  y  x A single wire has to be within 350(450)m in y direction. A single wire has to be within 163(293)m in x direction. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  19. Specifications Keeping everything else in perfect position, for a single gap chamber with 5mm gap, 30m wire and 2mm pitch, the allowed offset in order to find a wire surface field difference of 1.25(2.25)% is • gap:113 (202) m • single wire X:163 (293) m • single wire Y:350 (450) m • wire plane Y: 370 (490) m Which we translate into specifications of • gap: 95% in 90m 1% 5% in180m 2% • pitch: 95% in 50m 0.35% 5% in100m 0.7% • wire y-offset: 95% in 100m0.1% 5% in200m 0.4% • wire plane y-offset: 95% in 100m0.1% 5% in200m 0.42% • Added in squares: 1.07% 2.2% Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  21. Guard Wire Without a guard wire the wire surface fields and gas gains on the edge wires would be 301 269 263 262 … kV/cm 11 1.2 0.8 0.7 … x 105 Using a 200m diameter guard wire at the same pitch of 2mm gives 70.4 251 260 262 … kV/cm 0.0012 0.4 0.6 0.7 … x 105 Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  22. Wire Tension, Instability We use a 30m wire with 60g tension (half of the elastic limit). The maximum allowed wire length for a gas gain of 106 would be 65cm. We use a maximum wire length of 30cm i.e. we are safe. Wire sag is not an issue since the wires are vertical. We specify that no wire should have a tension of less than 50g. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  23. Many ‘different’ chamber types with different capacitance, grounding, signal flow … Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  24. Crosstalk Specification Double gap chamber 95% efficiency if the threshold is set to 30% of the average signal. 99% efficiency if the threshold is set to 20% of the average signal. In order to have a double gap chamber well within the plateau we want to be able to use a threshold of 15% of the average signal. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  25. Specification of Capacitive Crosstalk • Crosstalk due to ‘direct induction’ is ‘irreducible’ and given by our choice of 2.5mm cathode-wire distance. • In case of a hit on a given pad, the probability that a neighboring pad fires should be < 5%. • We want to be able to operate the chamber at a threshold of 15% of the average muon signal. • This specifies the ‘crosstalk ratio’ I.e. the fraction of signal allowed signal on a neighbor pad: • Assuming 95% of the signals within 3x average the crosstalk ratio has to be < 15%/3 = 5%. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  26. Pads, Readout Traces 0.5mm guard trace between pads 0.4mm gap between pad and guard trace 1.6mm boards in case of traces 0.8mm board otherwise 0.25mm readout traces 0.25mm guard traces at 0.25mm pitch We carefully studied readout and guard trace geometries to minimize crosstalk. Calculations were done with MAXWELL. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  27. Crosstalk Simulation We modeled each chamber including all pads, mutual capacitances, amplifiers … Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  28. Crosstalk Simulation 35-95 pF Cathode Pad Capacitance 15-209 pF Wire Pad Capacitance maximum pad-pad capacitance 3.95 pF maximum crosstalk 2.27 % maximum opposite sign crosstalk - 7.31 % Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  29. Crosstalk Measurement Crosstalk on M2M3R1 prototype at very high gas gain (1.8 x 105) is still <5%. Werner Riegler CERN, April 16th, 2003

  30. Crosstalk, Stability • We have a very good clue and understanding of the ‘smooth RC’ behavior of the chambers. • Since we have large capacitances (up to 220pF), even very small voltage drops due to parasitic inductances and ‘bad’ grounding can cause problems. • E.g. a 20V signal on the ground together with a 200pF capacitance fires the 5fC threshold. • Although we had every chamber type in stable conditions in a testbeam the frontend-board to chamber connection has still to be properly engineered.
