2 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 2 John Byrd People LBNL –John Byrd –Bill Turner –Peter Denes –Massimo Placidi –Nathan Speed –Alex Ratti –Jean-Francois Beche –Marco Monroy –Jim Greer University of Pavia –Franco Manfredi –Gianluca Traversi –Wainer Vandelli

3 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 3 John Byrd LHC Luminosity Monitor The challenge: High radiation environment (100 MGy/year) Bunch-by-bunch capability (25 nsec separation) with 1% resolution. The solution: Segmented, multi-gap, pressurized ArN 2 gas ionization chamber constructed of rad hard materials 9 cm

4 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 4 John Byrd Luminometer Beam Tests Use beam test facilities at the ALS to provide MIPs for the detector to test position sensitivity time response and gain accuracy operating experience over long time periods Booster-To-Storage Ring spur: 1.5 GeV e- at 1 Hz rate 30 psec pulse length intensity from 1 to 1e9 e- (1e3 typical) daily access and availability Storage Ring spill: 1.5 GeV e- with variable spacing 30 psec pulse length intensity of a few e- weekly access

5 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 5 John Byrd “delta-function” e- beam (50 ps); 1.5 GeV; 1 Hz Adjustable intensity (typically ran at 20 pp±50%) BTS Tests

7 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 7 John Byrd BTS Waveforms

8 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 8 John Byrd Position Sensitivity Raster scan detector through pencil beam Record 4 quadrants: x=(left-right)/sum y=(top-bottom)/sum y independent of x Ionization chamber works as a true 4- quadrant detector x and y are independent (no crosstalk) Position resolution < 110 µm x independent of y

9 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 9 John Byrd Gas Tests Chamber uses Ar (100-x %) + N2 (x%) Design was based on Monte Carlo calculations of gas properties Drift velocity is key parameter (determines speed) I0I0   = x GAP /v D I 0 = 2 Q 0 v D PN GAP = 9.7 e – /MIP/mm x 231 MIP/h x x GAP x P x N GAP = 0.72 nA x v D [µm/ns] x P [Atm] x N GAP x GAP

10 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 10 John Byrd Detector response time Measure pulse response for varying pressure, gas mixture, and voltage. Derive drift velocity from fit using electronics response. Data show agreement with simulation Pulses a bit longer than expected due to additional capacitance of detector/cable but still suitable for 25 nsec operation.

11 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 11 John Byrd Simulate LHC Pulse Rate in the ALS ionization chamber lost electron removeable lead scraper electron bunchesprimary EM shower vacuum chamber Fill pattern adjustable with 2 nsec spacing into 328 buckets. Test up to 24 nsec spacing.

12 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 12 John Byrd Fast Pulse Beam Test Results Gap 52 nsec, 11 bunches 26 nsec, 22 bunches Spilled ALS beam provides a test of LHC conditions. Further studies to determine if pulses can be deconvolved to 1% accuracy.

13 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 13 John Byrd Results from 12 June 2004

14 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 14 John Byrd Recent results 26 nsec spacing

15 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 15 John Byrd 26 nsec bunches zoom Need to deconvolve pulses using measured single pulse response. Use empty buckets as absolute reference.

16 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 16 John Byrd ch3 ch1ch2 ch4 broken Single pulse response -data from 6 July 2004 -single bunch pattern in the ring -3 channels show base width ~25-30 nsec -SNR unable to resolve long tails…pulse train needed to see effect -good agreement with bench tests of electronics

17 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 17 John Byrd Pulse train response empty buckets 26 nsec

18 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 18 John Byrd Deconvolution of overlapping pulses single pulse response Test deconvolution process using electronics driven by pulser Further work in progress: -peak accuracy vs. SNR -effect on channel nonlinearity

19 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 19 John Byrd Deconvolution Example: 100 pulse train with small amplitude sinusoidal modulation (accidentally applied to pulser!)

20 LARP Mtg 19-21 Oct 2004 page 20 John Byrd Possible installation in IP2 and 8 Effort to define envelope for installation at “low” luminosity IPs for use in p-p operations No TANs-IC detectors require supports and must be moved for Pb-Pb operations. sufficient space for IC Lumi
