5 oWPS (1) Developed and manufactured by Open Source Instruments Inc. under GNU General Public License : Design proposed in 2006 Version 1 in 2009 : oWPS1 Version 2 in 2011: oWPS2 Larger aperture Smaller exposure time PT1000 added Kinematic mounting surfaces (cone, conical chamfer and plane).

6 oWPS (2) Principle Two CCD cameras mounted rigidly on a support with a kinematic mount CCD cameras take pictures of the wire from two different angles, under red light As the position and orientation of each camera has been determined previously in a calibration process, the position of the stretched wire is deduced in the same coordinate system Version 2 consists of: TC255 image sensors from Texas Instruments, 336x243 pixels, with 10 μm square pixels An array of 9 LEDs (each LED emitting 20 mW of 620 nm red light) A PT1000 glued on the sensor side A A3022 WPS head developed by OSI Inc.

Inter-comparison at SLAC (From G. Gassner) Residuals < 1 μm Scale factor of 2% Residuals ~ 3 μm

15 Description of module test setup at CERN Configuration:

Some first results… Noise Noise peak to peak < 2 μm Noise peak to peak ~ 6 μm

Some first results… Repeatability, Reproducibility, interchangeability Repeatability: Reproductibility: < 3 μm Interchangeability: cWPS: maximum offset of 10 μm, mean value ~3-4 μm oWPS: maximum offset of 14 μm, mean value ~6-8 μm

Some first results… Test of displacement of the wire cWPSoWPS Each wire is displaced, and the sensors should see displacements that are proportional to their longitudinal position along the wire  the offset between theoretical displacements and achieved displacements must be as small as possible.

Some first results… Short term stability measurements Zoom over 2 days of measurements (one value / minute, each value is the average of 40 readings) cWPS & oWPS see the same displacement of support, due to temperature variations Readings can not be compared: there is an effect of temperature variations to the oWPS itself  Compensation needed.

20 Summary Performances of oWPS comparable to upgraded version of cWPS The Silver Vectran wire associated with oWPS is promising too, with a smaller linear mass and a stronger breaking tension. A conductive version is under development which could be associated to cWPS Next steps: perform tests concerning absolute measurements of oWPS and cWPS (latest results shown in previous presentation confirm that these measurements are within a few microns Develop a more compact version of oWPS, and a radiation hard version. oWPS (μm)cWPS (μm) Noise28 Repeatability< 1.5< 2 Reproducibility< 2< 3 Interchangeability Resolution< 0.5
