No need for pixel detector for pp, pA high PT Less than 3 hits per cell: (x,y) and (u,v) gives unique solution Question: radiation hardness Assuming 1011 proton/s beam and 1% target interaction one gets in average 1 event/nanosec. Using 3ns time-window one can on-flight identify high PT (i.e. high momentum) tracks Event-building: select all hits which are compatible in time with the triggering 3ns window. Of course, one assumes that all particles are running with c and the Time-of-Flight correction for each channel is applied.

Total cross-section trigger Idea (without XYTER) was proposed in 1st FutureDAQ workshop in Munich 25-26.03.2004.
Beam Target NEAR FAR Valid interaction amin SHINE TPC experiment less than 107 proton/sec
TRIGGER First level: ANTI ( BEAM+NEAR+FAR) ACCEPT: No continuation for BEAM particle in NEAR module or multiple track in NEAR CORRECTIONS: elastic scattering with FAR NEAR inefficiency interaction in NEAR
Prototyping possibilities in SHINE/NA61 at SPS • Moderate beam intensity < 107 p/s during the spill • For identification of beam particles one needs only • XYTER cell of 5*5 cm2 surface with x and y readout • The number of strips depends on the requested resolution: • pitch=100 m in 5 cm requires 4 chips for x and y, respectively, • if one uses the DETNI 128 channel ASIC chip. • In total 8 times 8 = 64 ASIC chips would be required. • Test can be done in autumn 2008 or 2009. If sensors and xyter ASIC chips would be available, KFKI-RMKI could design and produce the interface.
LHC tagged neutrino possibility Slow beam-dump Total fill about 1015 proton , extraction time 3 hours: 1011 proton/s Secondaries with few hundred GeV: 1012 p/s decay probability: 10-3 Number of decay muons at tagging station: 109m/s Ideal rate for XYTER Assumption: “point-like” proton beam target , i.e. interaction point is known with reasonable accuracy. Much less load (faster extraction) for neutral K beam.
Unknowns: decay point: ZD and momenta: Pp,Pm,Pn Shielding Decay zone Z XYTER-wall
Unknowns are only the momenta: PK,Pp,Pm,Pn Decay zone Shielding MAGNET XYTER-wall Possible e,m identification
Expected UNK-Serpukhov rates Expected LHC rates Neutrino energies upto TeV cross-section increase High tagging efficiecy + Large detector 10-100 ev/s
Conclusions One can propose very interesting unique applications for XYTER: -in short timescale: SHINE total cross-section trigger -in medium: CBM proton physics -in long-range: LHC tagged neutrino from beam-dump
