Ongoing activities • Paw analysis of testbeam data (Tommaso, P.) • Root analysis of testbeam data (Mauro) • Testbeam Geant4 simulation (Marco, Emanuele) • Root persistency (Marco) • Geant4 simulation of full LAV: • Production & analysis (Marco, Andreas) • Change lead/scintillator ratio (Emanuele) • Geant4 simulation general issues • validation of MC with NIST data (total g absorption probability) (Marco, Emanuele) • Geant4 simulation of testbeam • KLOE prototype (Emanuele) • scintillator, fiber hodoscope (Marco) • crystal & lead-glass monitor calorimeter (Andreas) • photon source (Tommaso, P.)
Ongoing activities • Next testbeam preparation • gamma source (P., BTF staff, AGILE Trieste) • mechanical support for prototype (Frascati: B. Dulach, S. Cerioni) • KLOE prototype: Light-guide polishing (Frascati workshop) • KLOE prototype: PMT gluing (Frascati: L. Iannotti) • New prototype • layout (P.) • procurement (P.) • lead grooving machines status (Antonella, P.)
Plans for prototype(s) testing • Tiles prototipes: • CKM, from FNAL (Peter Cooper) • CKM, from Protvino (Vladimir Obraztsov) • Spaghetti prototipe(s): • KLOE, barrel prototype piece • new half-C prototype (to be built!)
KLOE prototype support (LNF) beam Stefano Cerioni/Bruno Dulach, LNF
What to test • Tag electrons/photons hitting the prototype • Select events with one and only one particle • Inefficiency = tagged events E>Ethreshold/tagged events vs. • threshold • beam energy • impact position (distance from border) • impact angle • Robust estimate probability of mis-tag
Setup in July test prototype scintillator fingers fiber hodoscope (3 mm pitch) electrons • Improvements: • Use silicon chambers (tagged g beam target) as electron tracker • Spatial resolution 240 mm
Tests with photons • Mis-tag probability to be estimated • Photon source characteristics never measured: • efficiency of photon source • energy resolution • beam spot size and position • stability • Use different detectors to characterize g beam • Benchmark for efficiency estimate • use energy tag? • collimators? • veto lost photons?
Possible setup with g prototype veto
Status of g beam • 3 – 9 October • installation and commissiong of Silicon tagger modules (12 stations) • 10 October – 31 October • AGILE payload calibration • 16 – 30 November • P326 testbeam • December • P326 testbeam
