LHCC - May Link Tracker - Muons Working principle  Translates Tracker co-ordinates (points,  angles) to the ´linking points´ in the external MABs –The tracker co-ords are defined by the internal tracker alignment at the TK ends (TK alignment wheels) –The MAB ´linking points´ serve for Barrel and Endcap connection to the Tracker –Each 1/4  plane is generated independently. The whole system is constrained at the TK volume –Points (3D co-ords) are measured with laser beams + semitransparent sensors for the co-ords perpendicular to the beams, and by mechanical tubes and proximity sensors for the co-ords along the beams –The  angle is measured at each structure (TK wheel and MABs) by Laser Level units ØMeasures directly ME1/2 chambers (CSCs crossed by a secondary link line) and the ME1/1 CSC disk (using a ME1/1 transfer platform to bend by 90° the laser beam)

LHCC - May Barrel muon alignment Working principle 36 rigid mechanical structures called MABs are holding TV-cameras (typically 10 cameras/MAB). These cameras are observing LEDs mounted on both sides of the barrel muon chambers ( 40/chamber) and on the so called Z-bars (the reference in Z-direction). A high level of redundancy is achieved by multiple observations and loops which make the system robust and reliable. The barrel system is connected to the TK via linking lines.

LHCC - May Endcap muon alignment Connect Endcap CSCs to Tracker Tracker co-ordinates (points,  angles) from the MAB modules (via link system) 6 axial lines (transfer lines) pass through the MABs and run outside each CSC station Connection between axial lines and SLMs on transfer plates. Z distance measured by mechanical tubes and optical gap sensors Radial measurements from transfer plates to CSCs by potentiometers CSCs alignment design 3 laser lines per CSC station (SLM) are linked to the axial transfer lines: –SLM measures location of CSCs (on 1/6) –SLMs are 60 degrees apart, mount on CSCs at same point on each chamber –Precise location of sensors on CSCs using internal calibration and photogrammetry –Precise relationship of strips, alignment pins, and sensors on CSCs

Optical properties: >75 % transmission Serial readout electronics New prototypes development: Stuttgart: succeeded to produce test structures with dark currents as low as required. They proceed now with the fabrication of the first set of complete test sensors with final layout and bonding pads until beginning of July. This effort is carried out -within CMS- by Spain. It is done in collaboration with the MPI (Munich), institute involved in the alignment of the muon chambers of the ATLAS experiment. Minnesota: produced (by Feb 2000) two complete prototypes (with identical geometry as the old EG&G sensors). Their optical and electrical properties have been studied at CIEMAT-Madrid. The electrical test was not satisfactory: the sensors did not show the typical diode curve. Instead, they yield IV curves rather symmetric with respect to the (0,0) point which correspond to two mutually inverted Schottky barriers. This behavior was understood given the high symmetry of the structure (ITO/intrinsic a-Si/ITO) of the prototypes. Two lines of actions have been identified for the new prototypes to be built. The optical test was instead rather satisfactory. The measured transmission for both devices was over 75% and quite flat over the whole working region (wavelength nm). New prototypes ( 8 units) will be ready by summer. We will be testing mainly the electrical properties of the junction and charge division between strips, given that the optics is already properly understood. This effort was supported -within CMS- by US and Spain until beginning of It will continue mainly by Spanish institutes.
