1 : Generale A. Menzione, Gr 2, 19/11/03
3
CLUE Cherenkov Light UV Experiment Matrice 9 telescopi 3x3, Passo 45 m, specchi F/1 1.8 m Lece Cerenkov UV (190-240 nm) MWPC con TMAE FOV 4^ Trigger 2 Livelli Soglia 1 TeV
5
The UV Cherenkov light properties Typical CLUE event on one mirror Standard imaging techniques cannot be used Cluster Cluster charge Cluster centroid

Data Analysis on -sources Preliminary Crab feb.-mar 98, feb. 99, and nov.99 - mar. 2000 90 hrs ON-source 68000 evts 31000 reconstructed events ( Ncluster>9 ) 27000 OFF-source MrK421 Apr.-May 98 and mar. 2000 86 hrs ON-source 63000 evts 32000 reconstructed events ( Ncluster>9) 18000 OFF-source Data Reduction Pedestal drift correction Noisy and hot pad identification and correction Charged particles / photons selection (on clusters) We used thrust method to reconstruct showers direction Corrections depending on I.P. have been not yet applied in that analysis

3 : Moon A. Menzione, Gr 2, 19/11/03
16
Observation of Moon Shadow with old method Same preliminary treatement of source data We rotate the primary directions in such a way to have the proton shadow fixed along the - axis. The Moon dip lies along this axis (the West of the sky) and then it is evidenced in the difference between Western and Earsten bins Chamber owerview and pad segmentation [degrees]

4 : HPD A. Menzione, Gr 2, 19/11/03
24
Rb2Te 5-inch: Q.E.
25
Cover for HPD SYLGARD moulding air evaporationjob done!!! Rb2Te 5-inch: SYLGARD
26
Rb2Te 5-inch: Gain Equalization FFT Ref NIM A 385(1997) 336-370
27
Bialkali 10-inch: Production Assembly Top view Heater
28
Bialkali 10-inch:Sealed and working in May 2003 10-inch saled TOM-HPD compared to 5-inch HPD
29
Bialkali 10-inch: Q.E.
31
First Conclusion Wider in QE Good separation between noise and single phe Good photon counting (small gain fluctuations) Good imaging property (detector segmented) Good time property Project CERN-INFN GOAL : Production of a 10-inch HPD - Quartz window - Rb2Te Photocathode - Integrated electronics
32
TOM development road map * 5-inch Solar blind Rb2Te Photocathode (Q.E. 15 %) (BEAUNE 2002 NIM A 504 (2003) 19 ) DONE * 10-inch tube with Bialkali Photocathode (Q.E. 25%) (ELBA 2003 to be published on NIM A) DONE * 10-inch tube with QUARTZ window and Rb2Te with very special technology sealing quartz window to glass body developed toghether with PHOTEK and SVT 2003 * 10-inch tube with autotriggering electronics (VA-TA). Ready for CLUE 2004
