  1. The Status of the Scintillator-based Calorimetry R & D Activities in Korea DongHee Kim Kyungpook National University LCWS05 (SLAC) March 20, 2005

  3. Contents • - Basic Configurations • Current R&D status • Scintillator • SiPM • Simulation • Time schedule • - Future plan

  4. Tungsten Scintillator Basic Configuration • Prototype for EM Calorimeter One Layer : Tungsten 20cm X 20cm X 0.3cm (example) Scintillator 1cm X 20cm X 0.2cm X 20 strips  Total : 30 Layers (~ 26 Xo) • The R&D of prototype includes scintillator, SiPM and DAQ system

  5. Current R&D Status • Survey almost done for the last several months • Scintillator, W/W-Ni(or other alloy), SiPM, • Scintillator:R&D with Misung Chemical Company Ltd. • Tungsten: • R&D with TaeguTek Ltd • SiPM: • R&D with ETRI • SiPM/Tile R&D has been just started • Simulation is going on

  6. Scintillator • The 1st scintillator bars(or strips) for R&D purpose expect • to be produced during this semester • Make sure proper chemical processes • Compare light yield with commercially available scintillators • Design of scintillator strip for LC prototype will be underway • Cost • Cast - $40-60 / kg • Extrusion - $3.5-7 / kg

  7. Low cost plastic Scintillator • Extruded plastic scintillator materials - low cost : • Polymer pellets or powder must be used • - Commercial polystyrene pellets are available and cheap • - Component: Polystyrene pellets + Dopants(primary & secondary) • - Primary dopants : PT, PPO -> 1-1.5% concentration • - Secondary dopants: POPOP, bis-MSB ->0.01-0.03% concentration • - The extrusion process can manufacture any shape • Some disadvantage • - Poor optical quality because of • the high particulate matter content in the polystyrene pellets • The rapid cool-down cycle leaves the final material stressed. • → This stress can lead to non-absorptive optical distortions in the material that degrade the attenuation length • We need more R&D

  8. Extrusion Process(conventional)

  9. Extrusion Process All the work is done at one facility → reduces costs By removing its exposure to another high temperature cycle → reduces hits history of the product → eliminates an additional chance for scintillator degradation

  10. Example of the Extruder Scintillator Extruder

  11. Photo sensor – SiPM(Silicon Photomultiplier) • Current status for fabrication • Preparation design and process during this semester • - simulation of electric field in Geiger and drift region • - wafer and mask • - fabracation process R&D • Try to make sensor chip using FAB facility at ETRI. • ETRI : Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute • Process R&D • To get parameters : geometrical and chemical parameter s • Simulation using TCAD • R&D  FAB : 5 ~6 times / year • Packaging , attaching with WLS fiber

  12. DAQ system • The proto type has 30 layers(~26 Xo), one layer consists of 20 scintillator bars and tungsten plate  the prototype needs 600 read out channels • We have to think of how to manage these channels  Probably, VME or CAMAC system are not good solution for beam test for 600 channels. • So, the design of electronics and interface with computer is required. • We are considering R&D of electronics for QDC, TDC and USB2 for interface with computer.  need cowork with other group

  13. Simulation • 4 cpu (43GHz) and 1.2TB RAID storage allocated. • Mokka and susygen 3.0 installed • SUSY simulation under Mokka • neutralino pair production from e+e- collision • Simulation of prototype started Tungsten-Scintillator Calorimeter using Geant 4

  14. Simulation of TiCAL prototype • Structure Absorber : 200mm * 200mm * 3mm Scintillator : 200mm * 200mm * 2mm (We simulated plate, not strip yet)  30 layers ( ~26 X0 ) • Absorber pure W ( density = 19.3g/cm3) : simulaion done alloy W-Ni (W:Ni = 95:5) (density=18.7g/cm3) : simulation done alloy W-Pb (W:Pb = 90:10) (density=18.5g/ cm3) : simulation done • Effective Molier Radius from Simulation W : ~18.9mm W-Ni : ~19mm W-Pb : ~19mm : almost the same

  15. % % W-Ni W Energy(GeV) Energy(GeV) Energy Resolution • Electron energy = 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 80, 100, 200 GeV • Cut range : 0.001 mm W : (15.2  0.3)/sqrt(E) + (0.13  0.12) W-Ni : (13.4  0.7)/sqrt(E) + (0.16  0.29) W-Ni’s energy resolution is compatible with W’s

  16. What to do and Future plan • Producing Extruded scintillator • Fabricating sample of SiPM • How to manage DAQ system for prototype • Simulation for the thickness of scintillaor = 25 , 30mm Simulation for alloy with different ratio for W:Pb and W:Ni  Optimize the ratio of thickness for Absorber and Scin and absorber material. • Simulation for scintillator strip • Jupiter and Physics simulation Possible target for physics simulation is SUSY - scan the SUSY parameter space - producing generator data in format of HEPEVT • Prepare for beam test next year
