  3. Outline • TRT Detector Integration Status • SR1 Tests and Preparations • SR1 Combined Tests and Cosmic Runs • Final Commissioning in the ATLAS Cavern • Summary & Plans

  4. ATLAS Commissioning • Phase 1 commissioning • Infrastructure, individual sub-systems • Phase 2 • Combined sub-systems • Evolve into an integrated experiment • Perform early combined runs (e.g. cosmic runs). • Phase 3, 4 • Global Cosmic runs, • One beam runs • First collisions • Time scales • Phase 1 : 2004 - Early 2007 • Phase 2 : Fall 2005 - Early 2007 • Phase 3 : March 2007 Phases 1, 2, 3 and installation will overlap

  5. ID Installation Schedule • At present: the focus is on the assembly of the detector parts, their services and their integration. • Before the detector reaches the pit: combined system tests, integration of services, software and DAQ must be worked on. • In the cavern: Stage 1 and 2 must/will be completed and fully debugged there to allow smooth connection of services and efficient commissioning. • How to connect things and the sequence of tests, is based on experience from SR1. The detailed plan is under works…

  6. Orientation in ATLAS Side A = + Z side ( = called “back” on TRT barrel) Side C = - Z side ( = called “front” on TRT barrel) Insertion from SR1 is from Side C (-Z side)

  7. TRT Pictures TRT Barrel TRT End Cap C, stacks A & B

  8. TRT Integration Status

TRT Barrel Status (1) Last module installed on Feb. 3 2005 • All modules tested (HV stability, gain uniformity, wire tensions etc.) • All protection boards installed. • RF shield was put on. • Protection panels modified and installed. • Heater pads installed • Most FE boards installed. Continue to install: • Electronics and module cooling tubes. • Manifolds by quadrants after electronics are installed Cooling manifold, Active gas manifold (started installation in July), Purging gas manifold (in hand)

  10. TRT Barrel Status (2) Continue to install: • Thermal sensors Module/Cylinder sensors (installed), cooling plate & purging gas sensors. • Fuse boxes (production and evaluation in parallel). Continue to test: • Sector tests (at least one to be used for combined tests) • 4 sectors mechanically done, electronics tests have been started. • Cooling, active gas, purging gas, HV, thermal sensors, electronics… • Some DCS modifications in progress. • MTF migration: Commissioning, entering data. Still on the critical path: Manifolds, electronics, fuse boxes. One Stack already Fully Operational.

  11. A Taste of Installation Tests FE electronics installation tests consist of: • Connectivity test • Noise scan (low threshold) • Repeat of internal pulse response for low and high threshold The full set of installation tests are done before and after installation. • Final verification of electronics functionality/connectivity. • Detailed mapping of noise levels, dead channels, fine time performance. Electronics tests follow mechanics tests around the barrel. Starts after first quadrant of electronics and services are in place. Last time that most of the boards will be read out or powered before installation in the pit. SECTOR TESTS

  12. TRT End Cap Status TRT End Cap A-stack: Electronics boards installed and tests in progress. B-stack: Electronics boards installed. Rotation of stacks: Both stacks are rotated now and on tools in prep for services mounting (still separated) Mechanical survey (verification of dimensions) continues Rearrangement of stacking tables is done

(Self triggering could be used also for standalone tests.)

  26. BARREL First Combined Test configuration Tests: • Full SCT-TRT interface along modules • SCT-TRT interface along cable overlap • Interface to Thermal Enclosure & heaters • TRT between layers • Cosmics technically OK but at end of the schedule … SCT 14x48 modules 672 modules Cabled & Powered TRT 2 sectors on Side A + 2 sectors on Side C cabled

  27. Plans for Cosmic Run at SR1 ` November 2005-February 2006: Cosmic runs with the Barrel SCT and TRT. TRT Barrel: 2 (top) + 2 (bottom) TRT phi sectors. SCT Barrel: 672 SCT modules. Tilted by ~20o with respect to the vertical axis. Scintillators Active TRT Sectors. Iron or lead absorber to reject low momentum tracks Scintillators Barrel Setup

  28. Scintillators Setup Present Anticipated Setup 2 Scintillator Arrays 150x60 cm2 Tilted by 20o tilted Positioned at the top and bottom with no 3rd array in the center. Simulated trigger rates

  29. Commissioning with the SCT EC A B All SCT services installed but TRT End cap is supposed to have all harnesses installed by that time as well. No problem to test any area. Tests: February – March 2006 Might be delayed. Everything depends on SCT EC schedule. TRT: For 2 x1/32 sectors read out.

  30. What should we provide? • Full track reconstruction of cosmic events. • Alignment corrections for the different running conditions (e.g. different cooling temperatures). • Monitoring (at the EF, if available).

  31. What do we need to do? (1) • Simulation Basic simulation package exists: InDetCosmicSimExample TRT barrel and SCT barrel for Jan 2006 setup • Detector description of the SR1 layout • Simulation in Geant4 with only TRT+SCT barrel + scintillator setups • Tuning of simulation based on CTB data • Hits simulated in full detector and kept only if track passed scintillators • Digitization only of hits in read-out sectors & modules --> RDOs • BS converters • SCT fine with old BS converter, • TRT will use new RODs, different format, needs new RDO<->BS converter (new InDetRawDataByteStreamCnv under development)

  32. What do we need to do? (2) • Reconstruction package: InDetCosmicRecExample • Create from SCT & TRT RDOs: • PrepRawData, Space Points • SCT clusters and TRT drift circles • Tracks (using straight line fitter of new Kalman fitter) Reconstruction output: CBNT ntuple, alignment ntuple, ESD, Atlantis xml files. • Calibration • Need for implementation of TRT calibration algorithms in Athena • Many iterations required. Results should be stored in the Conditions DB • Monitoring • Alignment • Conditions DB (Oracle or MySQL) • Cabling, masking of read-out modules. • ROD configuration (thresholds, voltages) • Bad/noisy channels • Calibrations (R-t relations)

  33. Tasks for the 2006 commissioning Similar with the tasks (to be) done in 2005 in the SR1. Only the scale and importance will be augmented. • Final read-out parameter tuning • Noise tests (standalone & combined) • Services (Gas partial, cooling, HV, LV, Safety Systems) • DCS tuning (standalone, combined) • DB issues • Monitoring tuning (standalone, ID) • Comics runs • Mapping • Timing • Alignment • Different calibrations. • Integration with ATLAS DAQ

  34. Requirements for 2006 Commissioning • Completion of final connectivity tests. • Completion of functionality tests. • DCS fully operational, including interlocks. • Complete module readout available (Barrel, End Cap-C and End Cap-A). • Availability of a complete tested HV system. • Availability of Gas system and gas (Ar/CO2).

  35. ROD Crate DAQ RCD during commissioning in the pit. Parallel running with different partitions is required. Partition 1 TRT EC A Partition 2 TRT Barrel A Partition 3 TRT Barrel C Partition 4 TRT EC A RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD RCD Correlation between both parts of the barrel is important and we need to build complete event. Event Building

  36. Cosmic Run Tests in the ATLAS Cavern

  37. Operation with cosmic rays Cosmics in 10 milliseconds ~ 5 million cosmic muons enter the cavern in 15 minutes

  38. Trigger rate for the Barrel Require muons to deposit E > 1.5 GeV in each of 2 back-to-back TileCal towers 0.1 x 0.1 in (η,f): Access shafts increase this rate by ~ 20%. It will be quite difficult to look for particles and make calibration at this conditions but still possible.

  39. Initial TileCal Cosmic Ray Muon Trigger • Special setup to obtain trigger from Tile Cal is prepared. • Projective geometry for the trigger is used in the barrel area R z It is a problem for the EC TRT . Use RPC trigger instead! CTP is required for this.

  40. Extended Barrel Trigger Even with the extended Barrel trigger from TileCal the trigger for the TRT ECs is under question

  41. Conclusions An overview of the different installation/testing scenarios and schedules at September meeting. Only then plans for commissioning and negotiations with other subsystems can be done. Self trigger possibility is probably the only way to make cosmic run with the end-cap before CTP available. It also very much useful for the barrel because it could increase the trigger rate by factor of about 100. Plans for the commissioning require clarification, realistic installation and coordination. Keep working…

  42. Summary Things could dramatically change based on what number and when is available: Cabling - Patch Panels – LV – HV - Back-end – DAQ TRT commissioning scenarios should be (re)-evaluated. Gas (Xe mixture) for tests will be available by Feb. 2006 Gas system commissioning will start in Spring 2006 and can be largely done in parallel with Ar/CO2 flushing till November 2006. Many developments in TRT DAQ software and monitoring could affect the barrel schedule (due to the earlier installation). TRT Barrel has little service time for tests in the cavern. Cavern Tests include: Gas leak, Cooling (leak, function), Electronics, HV, DCS tests. Gas leak tests require constant temperature! Electronics test take a while because readout parameter tuning.
