13. 13 Mike Albrow: SiPMs

14. 14 Mike Albrow: SiPMs Nice features of SiPM: Having many measurements – timetrack – robust – self calibrating Resolution and offsets of each detector monitored by data. (In QUARTIC design, argument for multipad Photonis) Demands on electronics less: σ = 25 ns/ channel HPTDC can be used. Cheap: ~ $100 each (just detector) = $16K for 160 devices. Can be quickly exchanged (“cartouche”, if mechanics designed) Can be extended with extra layers if z-slot large to improve measurement. Low voltage (~ 30-60V) gives gain ~ 10 6 and single p.e. resolution. ALICE uses for ToF, CMS may get 10,000’s for HCAL. HPTDC adequate, but next version may get to ~ 10 ps

39. 39 Jim Pinfold (Alberta) Tested a prototype Burle Planacon tube using variable length fibers Examined both row and column effect of spillover signal 100, 250 and 500 ps before the target pulse About 10% of the pulse is detected in adjacent, empty pixels Data shows that early light is not significantly affected by later light Later light mean time is shifted, but is not totally dominated by the early pulse Late time measurement degrades significantly as Δt increases Exploring ways to reduce this effect Tested a prototype Burle Planacon tube using variable length fibers Examined both row and column effect of spillover signal 100, 250 and 500 ps before the target pulse About 10% of the pulse is detected in adjacent, empty pixels Data shows that early light is not significantly affected by later light Later light mean time is shifted, but is not totally dominated by the early pulse Late time measurement degrades significantly as Δt increases Exploring ways to reduce this effect

46. 46 Jim Pinfold (Alberta) We need to establish if the MCP-PMT’s are capable of coping with the large expected rates at the LHC: up to 15 MHz in a 6mm x 6mm pixel of the MCP-PMT Lifetime due to photocathode damage from positive ions is proportional to extracted charge: Using the current limits mentioned previously we get to 35 C/ cm 2 /yr (assuming 5x10 4 gain) at the highest lumi This is a factor of ~50 more than the expected tube lifetime! We can get this down by a factor of 2 using a fibre detector but we still need a factor of 25.
