  1. Status of 2000 test-beam analysis Jim Libby on behalf of M. Charles, P. Collins, O.Dortmond, F. Fiedler, C. Parkes, U. Parzefal and F. Teubert LHCb week VELO meeting 27th November 2000 • Motivation • The telescope, detectors, hybrids and irradiation • CCE Micron detector • CCE Hamamatsu detector • Resolution studies on Micron • Checks that have been made to get this far • Conclusions and the future J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  2. Motivation • For TDR study of the cluster finding efficiency and resolution (especially in fine pitch regions) with voltage. • Also as function of: • Radiation dose • Track angle • Detector thickness • p-on-n or n-on-n detectors • Floating strips • Use test beam results themselves or as input to simulation to answer these questions • Parasitic running for much of year and ~2 weeks dedicated running with irradiated test detectors in late August-early September this year J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  3. Telescope • New mechanics for 2000: • detector supports to allow 1 mm positioning • Fridge and cool box (-300 C-100 C on detector) • New black boxes • Scintillators • All from Lausanne J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  4. Hybrids and detectors • Fast station: Hamamatsu R equipped with • 6 SCTA chip hybrid (CERN, Guido) • Required repeater board (Lausanne) • Irradiated 200 m thick Micron  detector • equipped with 23 SCTA chip hybrids • One dead chip on non-irradiated side • Irradiated 300 m thick Hamamatsu  detector • equipped with 23 SCTA chip hybrids • One chip connected irradiated (left) side • Two chips operational on unirradiated (right) side More details Guido’s presentation from Milan J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  5. Irradiation: Micron • G.Casse, T.Ruf and F.Teubert • Maximum fluence: • 101014 protons/cm2 • Still uncertainty in position of beam with respect to detector • Use beam profile to fix this (F. Teubert) fig. J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  6. Irradiation: Hamamatsu • Maximum fluence: • 4.11014 protons/cm2 • Again knowledge of beam • profile will allow a • more accurate determination of • irradiation position J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  7. SCTA performance and fast station • First step look at un-irradiated detector equipped with SCTA • Plotting the integrated charge vs TDC clear SCTA pulse shape (Paula) fig • Integrated over 5 strips (strip of cluster centre ± 2 either side) • Signal peaks at around 65 • Chris also has measurements of this in which are in agreement • Also measurements of pulse shape and further studies of SCTA possible • Example ‘ballistic loss’  figures • A lot of data (over 1 million events) with SCTA readout J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  8. Micron CCE measurement • Results shown in Milan from Paula figs • Expect 2/3 of charge in 200 m compared to 300 m detector • Appears to be loss of charge compared to fast station even on unirradiated side • Improvements with new alignment gives a 10 % increase • 27 counts compared to 40 expected • 20-25% deficit • Expectation from the Rose collaboration is a 200 m oxygenated detector should be fully depleted at 300 V. • However, some good strips  fig J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  9. Micron CCE continued • Possible additional cause of loss due to increased capacitive coupling to back-plane : Al w Normally Cback ~ 0.3 pF/cm and Ccoup~10 pF/cm therefore ratio yields a ~3% loss to back plane. d Cback C_back = (0Si (p/d)) (1+(p/d)f(w/p))-1 where p = pitch (E. Barberis et al NIMA 342 (1994) 90) Backplane • The value of w is low at 8 m for Micron detector • Need to measure capacitances etc  detector to Krakow J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  10. Micron CCE continued • Even with this loss of charge signal to noise is good: • 27 signal / 2.5 noise ~ 10 - 11 ( around required level for operation) • CCE measurements now extended over most of Micron detector  fig • There are maps at 300 V and 200V  figs • Some correlation of ineffiency with radiation: • Particularly clear at 200 V • Still work to do understanding the loss and complete CCE maps • at different voltages • Also hardware question of voltage due to biasing of guard ring J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  11. Hamamatsu CCE • Mat and Uli performing analysis • Mat unirradiated side and Uli irradiated side • Cross--checking each other at present • Plots unirradiated side: • Align • Integrated charge vs TDC • Peak vs voltage • Plots irradiated side • Analysis ongoing update and firming up of results for • Liverpool J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  12. Resolution studies:Fast station • With current telescope including fast station one expects an • extrapolation error of: • 5.5 m at the fast station • 4 m at the test detector • For the fast station this leads to an expectation is 7.5 m for the • 40 m pitch region that has been equipped. (Vic’s studies) • There has been a lot of difficulty in even getting close to • z free • outliers • full telescope alignment • TDC window • The current best resolution at fast station is ~ 9.3 m  fig. • There is still some scatter with the residuals plotted against • R on the detector  fig • Additional alignment error of 5.5 m J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  13. Resolution studies:Micron • So even with this additional error from the alignment the resolution of the Micron detector has begun to be investigated • Firstly looking at a set of runs (around number 2943) at 300 V on the unirradiated side figs. • Deconvoluting the extrapolation error gives resolution of: • 12.0±1.1m (pitch ~ 40 m) • 17.0±1.1m (pitch ~ 47 m) • 23.0±1.8m (pitch ~ 53 m) • With caveats about charge loss and alignment see later • Now for unirradiated side…..  figs • All very preliminary but looks hopeful….. J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  14. Alignment and resolution studies remarks and conclusions • Current alignment procedure: • one detector at a time and use MINUIT to get 6 alignment • parameters  then iterate • This seems inadequate to sort out certain problems (e.g. bow tie) • Fix one detector and throw MINUIT at the remaining 86 alignment • parameters not an option…. • Probably a method using matrix inversion is the solution though this • will take time to implement • In the mean time aligning in small regions will allow the • measurement as a function of voltage and radiation to be made • Update at Liverpool J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  15. Remarks on getting this far withCCE and resolution • Checks of geometry of both Hamamatsu and Micron detector have • been made either through observation or confirming with P. Turner • Stereo angles remeasured or checked etc • Angles subtended • Transitions between regions • Then cross checked with software description • No major problems found including bonding errors • Also software algorithms for • noise • common mode correction (Odie ) • clustering • Still track fit to check J. Libby (VELO meeting)

  16. Conclusions and future • A lot of data with fast station to study SCTA • CCE for both irradiated detectors are well underway with interesting preliminary results • Resolution in fast station OK apart from additional alignment error • Micron resolution some promising results and others that require further investigation and of course problems in alignment procedure • Outstanding hardware issues on voltage and capacitances • Updates at Liverpool • Future: provisionally two periods next year in July and September…..
