LHC (SLHC) Experimental Challenges For LHC: Luminosity L = 1034 cm-2 s-1, Bunch Crossing (BX) interval D = 25 ns, High Interaction Rate pp interaction rate ~109 interactions/s Large Particle Multiplicity ~ 20 superposed events in each BX ~ 1000 tracks into the detector every 25 ns High Radiation Levels radiation hard detectors and electronics In forward CMS region (h ~ 3-5) ~ 100 Mrad/year (~ 107 s) [Activation of HF ~10 mSv/h (60 days LHC run/1 day cool-down) ]
LHC to SLHC Assume SLHC luminosity L = 1035 cm-2s-1 (10 x LHC) Possible bunch crossing intervals: 25 ns, 50 ns Some parameters for comparison are (1 LHC year = 107 s) : LHC SLHC L (cm-2s-1) 1034 1035 1035 BX interval (ns) 25 25 50 Nint / BX-ing ~20 ~ 200 ~ 400 dN/d / BX-ing ~100 ~1000 ~1000 ∫L dt (fb-1) 100 1000 1000 In forward CMS region (h ~ 3-5) ~ 10 MGy/year
Rad – hard Quartz Fibers Quartz Fibers (QF) with fluorine-doped silica cladding (QQF) can stand ~20 Grads, with ≤ 10% light loss; Plastic-clad fibers (QPF) may have ~75% losses after 5 years at LHC luminosity in high h region Quartz Fibers respond to fast charged particles by producing Cherenkov light PMT Photodetectors (low B) are sensitive to radiation mainly through PK windows with ≥ 30% transmission loss at 420 nm (glass) Recovery mechanisms, for fibers and PMT, may reduce the effects of radiation damage, either in a natural way (self-repair in quiet periods after exposure), or artificially, for instance like thermo-(or photo-)bleaching. Need to be understood to describe accurately the behaviour of the detector, and its history Robust enough for a survival strategy of detectors in extreme SLHC radiation conditions…???
Typical spectral response of QF shows reduced damage effects in the region around maximum (420 nm) of PMT sensitivity (Quantum Efficiency); this is an important asset of quartz-fiber calorimetry.
Characteristics of Cherenkov light from Quartz Fibers In quartz (n=1.45) charged particles with b >1/n (0.7) emit Cherenkov light (Threshold 0.2 MeV for e, 400 MeV for p) Cherenkov angle qc such that cos qc = (bn)-1 (~45o for b=1) Optical fibers only trap light emitted within the numerical aperture of the fiber qT (~20o with axis of fiber) qT ~ 20o qC ~ 45o b > 0.7 DRDC P54 (1994) - Development of quartz fiber calorimetry (A.

HF in UX5 – at beam level Since lowering to UX5, HFs were in garages, while the rest of CMS was lowered to UX5 & assembled; in the garages HFs were commissioned one module seen here was extracted and was brought to beam level temporarily
HF structure and properties
Energy resolution of HF a – Statistical fluctuations b - Constant term (calibration, nonlinearity) c - Noise, etc Electromagnetic energy resolution is dominated by photoelectron statistics and can be expressed in the customary form. The stochastic term a = 198% and the constant term b = 9%. Hadronic energy resolution is largely determined by the fluctuations in the neutral pion production in showers, and when it is expressed as in the EM case, a = 280% and b = 11%. Highly non-compensating: e/h ~ 5 Light yield ~ 0.3 phe/GeV Uniformity (transverse) ± 10% Precision in h ~ 0.03 and in f ~ 0.03 rad

SLHC R&D on Rad-hard Quartz University of Iowa As a solution for SLHC conditions quartz plates are proposed as a substitute for the scintillators at the Hadronic Endcap (HE) calorimeter. Castor uses Quartz Plates A first quartz plate calorimeter prototype (QPCAL - I) was built with WLS fibers, and was tested at CERN and Fermilab test beams. Geant4 simulations are completed R&D studies to develop a highly efficient method for collecting Cerenkov light in quartz with wavelength shifting fibers. • We are also constructing a prototype calorimeter, first 6 layers have been tested at Fermilab test beam. This summer whole prototype will be at Cern test beam.

Preliminary results Light Enhancement Tools: Readout Options: PTP and Ga:ZnO (4% Gallium doped) enhance the light production almost 4 times. OTP, MTP, and PQP did not perform as well as these. PTP is easier to apply on quartz, we have a functioning evaporation system in Iowa, works very well. We also had successful application with RTV. Uniform distribution is critical!! We tested 0.005 gr/cm2, 0.01 gr/cm2, and 0.015 gr/cm2 PTP densities on quartz surfaces, looks like 0.01 gr.cm2 is slightly better than the others. ZnO can be applied by RF sputtering, we did this at Fermilab- LAB7. We got 0.3 micron, and 1.5 micron deposition samples. 0.3 micron yields better light output. Readout Options: Single APD or SiPMT is not enough to readout a plate. But 3-4 APD or SiPMT can do the job. Test Beams: We have opportunity to test our ZnO and PTP covered plates, at CERN (Aug07), and Fermilab MTest (Nov 07, and Feb 08). Blue : Clean Quartz Green : ZnO (0.3 micron) Red : PTP (2 micron)
