All 6 castles with 18 Roman pots comprising the FPD were constructed in Brazil, installed in the Tevatron in fall of 2000, and have been functioning as designed. A2U pot had vacuum leak and was disabled for 6 months and fixed during Jan shutdown. A2 Quadrupole castle installed in the beam line. Castle Status

Detector Setup 0.8 mm 3.2 mm 1 mm mm U U’ X X’ V V’ Trigger 6 planes per detector in 3 frames plus a trigger scintillator U and V at 45 degrees to X, 90 degrees to each other Planes in a frame offset by ~2/3 fiber (4 fibers/bin) 2 detectors per spectrometer, 7 MAPMT per detector

At the University of Texas, Arlington, scintillating and optical fibers were spliced and inserted into the detector frames. Detector Assembly 20 detectors (includes 2 spares) built at UTA, sent to Fermilab, 10 installed, others in preparation at Fermi (see Mike S. talk).

All 18 cartridges have been assembled, 16 are installed in tunnel (10 with full detectors 2 with trigger scint). The 10 instrumented pots (Phase I) are ups, downs, and dipoles. Cables and tunnel electronics (low voltage, amp/shapers, etc.) installed and completely operational for Phase I, mostly operational for Phase II 18 pots setup (more later). 10 more detectors (includes 2 spares) are complete except for final polishing, which is in progress at Fermilab. Tunnel and Detector Status P2 Quadrupole castle with up and down detectors installed.

In the October 2001 shutdown four veto counters (designed at UTA, built at Fermilab) each of which cover 5.2 < |  | < 5.9 were installed between DØ and the first low beta quadrupole (Q4), about 6 m from the interaction point. The counters, two each on the outgoing proton and anti-proton arms, can be used in Diffractive triggering (veto proton remnant). Veto Counters

Pot Motion Pot motion is controlled by an FPD shifter in the DØ Control Room via a Python program that uses the DØ online system to send commands to the step motors in the tunnel.

Pot Motion Safeguards The software is reliable and has been tested extensively. It has many safeguards to protect against accidental insertion of the pots into the beam. The drivers are disabled with a switch in the Control Room when the pots are not being moved. The pots are hooked to an emergency line which bypasses the software to send the pots back to the home position in case of emergency.

Pot Insertion Monitor Effect of the pot motion on the proton and antiproton losses at DØ and CDF is monitored using ACNET. Current agreement with Beams Division and CDF requires that the effect on halo rates is less than 10%.

Steps Needed for Physics Partial list of steps needed to get to physics quality data: Commission AFE’s Include trigger scintillator information/ basic and/or terms Alignment of FPD FPD database Activate FPD_Reco Halo understanding, reduction, and rejection FPD info in DST’s and Thumbnails Propose some reorganization to address some of these issues. 1)Alignment Task Force to address alignment, calibration, folding in accelerator information 2)Halo Task Force to propose studies for reducing halo and maximizing acceptance

How to apply accelerator information to improve beam position measurement A/S pedestal fluctuations, need to evaluate level of problem, develop hot and dead channel list Decoupling LMB from calorimeter …what is on your list? Random FPD Issues
