Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Reconsideration of the Installation at D0 Overview Major constraints Basics of old, new schemes Some details on each Cost/benefit Proposed plan Conclusions Jon Kotcher Brookhaven National Laboratory D0 Collaboration Fermilab PMG January 20, 2000

Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Overview Have worked out two new approaches to detector installation u many options considered u has grown out of detailed discussions among principals and beyond: s Project Management s Sub-Project Managers (esp. Forward Muon, Trackers, Calorimeter) s Project Engineers s Technical Supervisor, Forward Muon survey coordinator,... u a number of details remain that may color how one thinks about each option u none have any significant likelihood of influencing feasibility Primary goals: u uninterrupted detector commissioning during end game s was very severe - breakdown of LHe ~ Nov 1 for 6 weeks u introduce contingency for the silicon s was none u relieve pressure on end game by doing things early whenever possible
3
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Overview Primary Goals (cont’d) u strive for plan that offers forgiving contingency scheme, fallback possibilities for as many detectors as possible u flexibility New (any) scheme driven largely by two primary constraints: u Forward Muon installation s huge system that dictates position/movement of major pieces: end irons, trusses u logistics of Silicon and Fiber Tracker installation
4
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Major Installation Constraints South calorimeter must be on platform if platform is to be moved At some point, north and south sidewalks must be clear to allow assembly of EMC trusses prior to rolling them into Collision Hall u Requires end toroids on platform s For south end, also requires south calorimeter on platform s Must move platform to pick up end irons In order to install either inner tracker: u both south calorimeter and south end toroid must be on sidewalk to allow access to inner bore Bringing down either truss from the Hi Bay, with its detectors mounted, requires LHe engines be disconnected u Without detectors, can be avoided
5
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Basics Previously: u No movement of any of the large pieces (N/S truss, end irons, detector platform) until both fiber tracker and silicon are installed and checked out s ~ Nov 1, 2000 u End game paced/driven by movements of these pieces thereafter Two new schemes: u Both have shield wall coming down to install north truss in Collision Hall immediately after commissioning run s Nov 1, 2000 u Scheme I: s Install south truss in Collision Hall during Aug, 2000 window s platform goes in last u Scheme II (fallback): s platform follows north truss s south truss installed in Collision Hall last u Advantages, disadvantages to each u Both are better than previous version...
6
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Old vs. New Installation Scheme Have learned much in process: u can probably install B-layer MDTs and pixels while detector is in Collision Hall if need be u may be possible to reassemble south truss in pit without breaking helium (remove detectors) u north truss can go onto sidewalk anytime, independent of rest of end game u entire wall does not have to come down to install trusses u various positions of collision wall, surveying, positioning low beta quads, air handler interferences,... What we’ve learned has greatly facilitated our ability to change course as project evolves
7
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Cost/Benefit Gains derived from new schemes: u Helium interruptions end Sep (Jul) 2000 for early (late) south truss installation s Extended, uninterrupted commissioning of full experiment - including VLPC-based detectors - for at least last 4 months s 6 months in case of late truss s Commissioning of CFT was perilously close to vanishing in old scheme u Went from 0 to ~ 6-8 weeks contingency for silicon in both schemes s can arrive at D0 as late as mid-Nov without delaying roll in (currently mid-Sep) s gained 2 months over next 9 - non-trivial s must be willing to cable south end detectors (CAL, FPS-S, ICD-S, LUM-S) in Collision Hall u Major installation task - south truss installation - done early in Scheme I s a large job we can put behind us - relieve some heat during end game s do they fit? Nice to know this early as possible in case modifications are needed s helps motivate/target completion of major component of Forward Muon system
8
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Cost/Benefit Gains (cont’d): u Early scheme gives 2+ month window (6/22 - 8/23) for B-layer south MDT and pixel installation while south end iron is on platform s very user-friendly configuration s obviates the need for significant amount of engineering, technical work needed otherwise s Forward Muon schedule says this is doable u Survey of south truss in Collision Hall greatly facilitated by Aug roll in (done in November) Cost: u 1 (early truss) - 2 (late truss) weeks at end s ready for beam was 2/6/01, now 2/13 (2/21) for early (late) truss s can relieve this by rolling in earlier if sensible (partially cable south detectors in CH) u early truss: one additional move of platform (south EF), shield wall (partially) broken down extra time s partially interrupts some installation and hookup –electronics in platform can proceed: a bit hampered, but not seriously s diverts manpower from other DAB work at important time
9
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Cost/Benefit Cost (cont’d) u early truss: significant interruption to CFT hookup (Jul-Sep) - helium, detector access s part of cost for 4 months of full detector commissioning at end u Requires re-shuffling priorities of Forward Muon production s Significant impact to this effort (not always a bad thing!) s Priorities: A-layer installation, C-layer mounted to south truss u Filling calorimeter delayed ~ 2 weeks due to platform movement in Scheme I s CC cosmic running starts ~ Oct 1 (was Sep 20) s early test fill still feasible (Jul-Aug) Need additional week (3 week window total) in Aug for truss installation u Accelerator Division’s estimates taken into account (roll out low beta quads,...) u believe this should pose no problems, but another week of contingency would probably make sense
10
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Relevant Details for Scheme I Detector back in configuration where it can accept either tracker on 9/8/00 u earliest it can be back in position after truss installation u At present, silicon ready to install 9/19/00 u If accelerator schedule slips, it will cost us to install south truss early Fiber Tracker must be at D0 by 6/26/00 or its installation will be delayed until 9/8/00 u will delay south truss assembly on south sidewalk - late for Aug roll in u compete with silicon installation/hookup u delays (delicate) hookup of clear waveguides u leaves 3 weeks contingency from current date u decision on whether to pursue early south truss installation must be made before end June; earlier to prepare
11
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Our Plan Are aggressively pursuing early south truss installation (Scheme I) u accomplishing large task early is worth cost in other areas u have shifted priorities in Forward Muon to accomplish this u pushing on Fiber Tracker production We will move platform ~ late spring under any circumstances u currently mid-June for early truss u right now paced by arrival/installation of Fiber Tracker u installation of A-layer MDTs and pixels should be complete (not necessary, in any case) Will either pick up north end iron only (late truss), or both end irons (early truss), depending on scheme chosen Decision on which way to go will be made as late as possible, but early enough to prepare: u by June 1 u earlier if circumstances allow u consistent with Accelerator Division’s needs?
12
Fermilab PMG Jan 20, 2000 Conclusions Reconsideration of installation sequence has provided significant gains where they matter most Both preferred scheme (I) and fallback (II) far more flexible than previous version Decision-making branch point for early south truss installation identified u If scheme is adopted, need at least 1 additional week during August shutdown (2 preferred) Installation organization in place, implementing collaboration-wide procedures, safety requirements for work in Hall, etc.
