HERMES Lead Glass for SHMS Electromagnetic Calorimeter ► ► ► ► ► ► Introduction HERMES Calorimeter Present status Proposed R&D works Timeline for construction Summary ( Arthur Mkrtchyan, YerPhI ) Hall C Meeting, January 18-19, 2008 Introduction • At forward angles and high momentum settings of the SHMS the electromagnetic calorimeter will play dominant role to separate electrons from hadrons. • In combination with Gas Cerenkov, Aerogel or/and TRD calorimeter will provide a π/e rejection by factor of ~100. • Higher energy leads to larger probability for fluctuations of the energy deposited in a total-adsorption calorimeter. • It was necessary to consider a shower counter for the SHMS thicker than is used in the HMS (to exclude possible energy leaks). Introduction • Optimization studies of the calorimeter for the SHMS were completed in May 2007 • Our studies allowed to select an alternative calorimeter geometry maintained the good energy resolution and pion rejection capabilities. • Basic requirement for SHMS Calorimeter was effective area ~1.5 m2 and resolution ~6% at 1 GeV Block Diagram and sensitive areas of SHMS Detectors Three versions for SHMS Calorimeter 3) 1) 2) 1. The blocks are oriented transversely, with PMTs looking sideways. Need: 130 blocks 10x10x70 cm3 (TF-1). 2. The blocks are oriented longitudinally, with PMTs looking upstream. Need: 182 blocks 10x10x50 cm3 or 224 blocks 9x9x50 cm3 (TF-1 & F-101). 3. The blocks are oriented transversely in PRESHOWER and longitudinally in SHOWER. Need: 26 blocks 10x10x70 cm3 in PRESHOWER, and 224 blocks 9x9x50 cm3 (SHOWER. Resolution and π/e rejection • The Energy resolutions with and without Preshower are similar: σ/E=3.67+0.92/√E. • π/e rejection ~2x10-2. Preshower improves rejection at least by factor 4 (open symbols). Present Status • Best choice for calorimeter: Preshower + Shower - Effective area: 120 x 130 cm2 - Energy resolution: ~6%/√E - π/e rejection at least 0.01 (at P>1 GeV/c) • Detector Components: - Preshower: 26 blocks from SOS Calorimeter (TF-1 type LG, 10x10x70 cm3) - Shower: 224 blocks from DESY-HERMES (F-101 type LG, 9x9x50cm3) HERMES Calorimeter Calorimeter consisted of 840 radiation resistant F-101 lead glass blocks arranged in a two wall configuration, above and below beam. Each wall was composed of 420 identical leadglass blocks stacked in a 42 x10 array. Blocks dimentions are 9x9x50 cm3 Transmittance for 8.9 cm thick F-101 (HERMES blocks at start) - An accumulated dose of ~ 2 krad produces a degradation of transmittance less than 1%. -The F-101 LG is 10-50 times less sensitive to radiation damage than TF-1 and SF2 Energy deposition in adjacent blocks (HERMES calorimeter) • The position 0 cm and 9 cm correspond to the left and right block respectively. • Solid squares: left block; open squares right block; stars: sum of two blocks. Energy resolution σ(E)/E (HERMES Calorimeter) The line shows the parameterization Hermes blocks possible damage • Calorimeter was installed ~14 years ago. For many blocks mylar may have optical contact with blocks, which will reduce resolution • We know that for some of HERMES moduls the optical joint between PMT-block need to be repaire • Blocks in the layers close to the beam plane expected to have essential radiation dose. • From HERMES logbook we found information about gain degradation for some of PMT’s. Timeline for upcoming works (Tests and Design) • General revision of HERMES blocks March-May’08 • Study of Quantum Efficiency on 5-7 randomly selected PMT’s from HERMES calorimeter MayJune’08 • Study of Quantum Efficiency for new XP3461. Comparison with HERMES PMT’s July-Aug’08 Timeline for upcoming works (Tests and Design) - Study of attenuation length on ~10 blocks from HERMES calorimeter. August-September 2008 - Repair all damaged modules October-December 2008 - Revison and selection of blocks from SOS Calorimeter for PRESHOWERJanuary-March’09 - Test all the modules with LED and cosmic April-September 2009 Plan for construction and Installation • Preshower part exict and will be taken out from SOS when SOS will be retired. (Expect 2009). • Shower blocks from HERMES calorimeter are packed, will be shipped to JLab and we expected to arive in February 2008. • All hardware work is scheduled to be completed before end of 2009. • Design of support structure for SHMS Calorimeter: 2009-2010 SOS (HMS) Calorimeter Support SHMS Calorimeter may have similar supports “hanging” from the back wall of detector hut Plan for construction and Installation • Develop read-out system and electronic diagram for SHMS Calo, finalize and order all electronic 2009-2010 • HV and slow control system 2009-2010 • Develop software for calorimeter ADC readout and DAQ 2009-2010 • Test all calorimeter with electronic and DAQ (Test-Lab) 2010-2011 • Be ready for installation in Hall C 2011 Summary • • • • • • • • Based on MC studies the final version for the SHMS calorimeter has been selected. Energy resolution: σ<~5% at 1 GeV. /e rejection factor without PRESHOWER: ~2x10-2. Preshower will improve pion-electron rejection at least by factor 4. The use of radiation hard F-101 lead glass from HERMES is the optimal solution for SHOWER part. We will use TF-1 type blocks from SOS shower detector to built PRESHOWER part for SHMS. No significant degradation is observed for the HMS and SOS calorimeters since 1995. SHMS detector hut of similar quality as for HMS will minimize calorimeter radiation degradation. Summary • Final assembly of calorimeter modules will be completed in 2009. Test with cosmic will be started. • Test of the calorimeter with full electronics and DAQ is planed for 2009-2010. • Calorimeter will be ready for installation by end of 2010 • We will develop software & slow control system for SHMS similar to HMS/SOS calorimeters. (2009-2010). • The Yerevan Collaboration will take responsibility for the design, construction and assembly of SHMS calorimeter, its calibration and online software. Everything can be ready well before shutdown of accelerator (2013). •
