  1. Construction & Commissioning of Full-size GEM prototypes for the CMS High- Muon System Marcus Hohlmann (Florida Institute of Technology) with C. Armaingaud, S. Colafranceschi, R. De Oliveira, and A. Sharma (CERN) on behalf of the CMS GEM Collaboration 2012 IEEE Nuclear Science Symposium, Anaheim, CA N38-6 Nov 1, 2012

  2. MOTIVATION & INTRODUCTION

  3. Premise for CMS GEM upgrade • CMS was designed with a “hermetic and redundant muon system” – Joe Incandela, CERN “Higgs Discovery” Event, 7/4/12 • But: CMS currently has the least redundancy in the most challenging muon region, i.e. at |η| > 1.6: • RPCs descoped; only Cathode Strip Chambers currently present • Long-term functioning of the muon system into LHC Phase II (beyond Long LHC Shutdown 3) is of vital interest for CMS. Use Phase I to evaluate muon technology for Phase II. • The high-ηmuon region in particular will need robust and redundant tracking and triggering at the anticipated higher muon rates • Additional muon detectors with high spatial and temporal • resolution in the high-η endcap region could bring benefits • in triggering, reconstruction, and ID for muons: → GEMs

  4. CMS GEM Endcap Chambers The currently un-instrumented high- RPC region of the muon endcaps presents an opportunity for instrumentation with a detector technology that could sustain the radiation environment long-termand be suitable for operation at the LHC and its future upgrades into Phase II: GEM Detectors GE1/1in YE1 nose GE3/1 GE4/1 GE2/1 on back of YE1 CMS Detector

  5. Method of Integration into CMS Installation sequence: Four superchambers in their final position Superchamber (Two Triple-GEMs) Mounting on yoke disk A. Conde Garcia

  6. Expected Benefits for Reconstruction & Trigger Expected gains in momentum resolution at high-pT Staving off looming muon trigger inefficiencies at high- Simulation Expected CSC inefficiency at PU=400due to Cathode LCT - Anode LCT timing mismatching for one GEM station A. Safonov (Texas A&M) Acceptance impact:  distribution of 4 muons in H → ZZ → 4µ 1.6<<2.4 M. Maggi (Bari) – GEM Workshop 3 Strip Readout granularity: # GEM strips / # RPC strips (orig. TDR) Paolo Giacomelli (Bologna) & Markus Klute (MIT) – GEM Workshop 3

  7. CONSTRUCTION OF FULL-SIZE GEM PROTOTYPES

  8. Evolution - GEM foil stretching Current state-of-the-art: Self-stretching assembly without spacers (CERN) Readout PCB Tightening the horizontal screws tensions the GEMs & seals gas volume GEMs Drift electrode Detector base pcb only glue joint in assembly Allows re-opening of assembled detector for repairs if needed. 2012 R. De Oliveira, CMS-GEM/RD51Workshops CERN & U. Gent

  9. 3rd CMS GE1/1 Prototype: “Self-Stretched - Sans Spacer” No spacers in active volume GEM foil with inner & outer frame GEM foil in inner frame assembly GEM tensioning base pcb with drift electrode Vias for strips sealed w/ kapton compact HV divider -sector with 384 radial readout strips (12.4 cm long) HV noise filters Chamber closed by readout board with Panasonic connectors for frontend electronics 2012 Inside of readout board with O-ring seal

  10. CMS Full-size GE1/1 Detector Prototype • GEM active areas: 990 mm  (220-445) mm • Single-mask technology • 1D radial strip read-out with 3 8 128 = 3,072 channels • HV sectors: 35 • 3/1/2/1 mm gap sizes • Gas mixtures: • Ar/CO2 (70:30; 90:10) • Ar/CO2/CF4 (45:15:40; 60:20:20) • Gas flow: ≈ 5 l/h The new self-stretching technique has been applied to the full-size CMS GEMs Production of 5 prototypes launched in May 2012

  11. Prototype Production: Status & Plans 4 chambers completed at CERN • 2 in SPS test beam in summer; 3rd being prepared for fall TB • Some issue with dust particles from fiberglass frame getting into active GEM area in first two prototypes • micro sand blasting & polyurethane coating of frames → change to different material (PEEK) for inner frame that holds GEMs • 1st chamber to be assembled and commissioned outside CERN this fall (at Florida Tech) After sand blast Frame after machining After PU coating

  12. Next Prototype: No Gluing & PEEK frames Panasonic readout connector Readout PCB On-foil protection resistors Outer frame GEM foils Use O-ring to seal outer frames to drift plane Inner frame Drift Board As a lot of dust was released during the screw insertions into FR4 frames, CERN has replaced FR4 by PEEK for inner frames. PEEK is one of the best polymers in terms of: -radiation tolerance -mechanical properties -outgassing -chemical resistance Rui De Oliveira

  13. Summary of GEM production & Plans • We are now below 2 hours for the GE1/1 assembly • with the self-stretching technique • (after gluing outer frames to drift) • Three 30cm  30cm detectors have been produced • Up to now  ok • Four 1.2m  0.45m detectors have been produced • 2 tested OK  but gain uniformity still to be improved • 2 others currently being tested • Four new ones will be produced with all the improvements • to reach final specifications (< 30% gain non-uniformity) • Preparing a new laboratory for CMS GEM assembly and • quality control at CERN (spring 2013) Rui De Oliveira
