Nantes, July 2002Frank Geurts -- STAR collaboration Meeting 2 TOFp System Overview pVPD Two pVPD assemblies, located at ±5.7m from TPC center Each pVPD assembly consists of 3 cylindrical PMT assemblies PMT assemblies: 1.4" Pb converter, 1cm BC420 and 2" R2083 Magnetic shielding against STAR magnetic field (few 100G) PMT assemblies symmetrically mounted around the beam Coverage: ~32% azimuthal, forward rapidity 4.5<|η|<5.2 provides local coincidence trigger TOFp replaced one of the 120 trays in the CTB layer around the TPC tray form factor: 242 x 22 x 9 cm 3 at R=2.1m 41 slat assemblies, ordered in η-groups of 4 slats (5 slats at η=0) slat assembly: 20 x 4 x 2 cm 3 BC420 and Hamamatsu R5946 HV generated locally, a remote control interface Coverage: azimuthal Δφ ≈ 6°, mid-rapidity 0 < η < 1 Operations PMT signals locally amplified and discriminated logic and analog signals transferred over ~220ft RG-58/U and re-discriminated pVPD coincidence triggers readout and digitization Au+Au coincidence level: 2.AND.2 (100% efficient) Although not designed for p+p, 1.OR.1 coincidence level 60% efficient (13% efficient in offline 1.AND.1) digitization in CAMAC with LeCroy 2228A TDCs and 2249A ADCs thermocouples along the full signal path

Nantes, July 2002Frank Geurts -- STAR collaboration Meeting 4 Track Extrapolation & Matching 1.identify hit TOFp slats with valid TDC and ADC signals 2.identify matches by extrapolating valid global TPC tracks valid helix fit, minimum #hits/track and/or #fit-points/track 3.select slats with single track matches consider multiple hit slats in an advanced stage of the analysis 4.restrict to primary tracks tracks must originate from the primary vertex

Nantes, July 2002Frank Geurts -- STAR collaboration Meeting 5 Start Time coincidence level in Au+Au: 2.AND.2 complicated start corrections: large time-amplitude dependence (slewing) slewing corrections in terms of with e i,w j east-i, west-j pVPD channel in TDC-bins equivalent single channel resolution ~58 ps pVPD system resolution Δt=24 ps slewing corrections z vertex [cm] σ( - ) [TDC bins]
