The FP420 Project:Physics Potential Albert De Roeck CERN and University of Antwerp and the IPPP Durham
Exclusive Central Production • Selection rules mean that central system is (to a good approx) 0++ If you see a new particle produced exclusively with proton tags you know its quantum numbers • CP violation in the Higgs sector shows up directly as azimuthal asymmetries • Tagging the protons means excellent mass resolution (~ GeV) irrespective of the decay products of the central system. LO QCD backgrounds suppressed • Proton tagging may be the discovery channel in certain regions of the MSSM. • Unique access to a host of interesting QCD processes Very schematically: exclusive central production is a glue – glue collider where you know the beam energy of the gluons - source of pure gluon jets - and central production of any 0++ state which couples strongly to glue is a possibility …

Fast Timing Detectors Include high precision timing counters. Suggested in Tevatron LOI: Quartz Cerenkov + ~ Microchannel PMT Then said 30 ps(?). Now tested (Japanese Gp) 10 ps Other option: Gas Cerenkov Check that p’s came from same interaction vertex (& as central tracks) x tR tL t_int t tL z_vtx tR z Expected to be particularly useful/essential at high luminosity/pile-up
Before inserting bars and wrapping QUARTIC (Fermilab) GASTOF (Louvain) SiPMT + Quartz also studied QUARTICs : 8 measurements/proton 2 in beam 16 measurements on “timetrack” Could have two GASTOFs + 2 QUARTICS. Resolution still dominated by electronics ... can do better Longer term possibilities (Tracker upgrade time): Develop thin (Si, 3D?) fast timing layers. Pads ~ cm2. Find true event time and match with t(pp). Further pile-up rejection ~ 20 may be possible. Forward discs also: reject events with forward tracks Had two generations of detector and Electronics in Fermilab test beam Sept 2006 and Mar 2007 ... next run July 07.
Triggers for Exclusive Processes • Detectors at 420m can be included in the HLT • Would need to increase L1 latency for inclusion in L1, which might be possible in special runs • (use post-L1Accept event buffers as pre-L1Accept storage) • For standard CMS running triggering with forward detectors has been studied in great detail, see trigger appendix in CMS PTDR-II • CMS trigger menus in PTDR-II foresee 1% of the bandwidth on L1 and HLT for a dedicated forward detectors trigger stream • H(140GeV) -> WW: • Can trigger ~20% of events via the standard L1 muon trigger • H(120GeV) -> bb: • Can trigger 10% of the events via the standard L1 muon trigger • Can gain an additional 10% from the jet trigger when combining jet trigger and tag at 220m, because can lower dijet ET thresholds substantially, to about 40GeV per jet, for bandwidth limit of 1kHz • In order to retain this 10% gain from the jet trigger on L1 and stay within bandwidth limit of 1Hz, • need FP420 information on HLT Last word on trigger not yet said…
TOTEM d(epeXp)/dxL [nb] det@420 xL=P’/Pbeam= 1-x Pile-up Number of PU events with protons within acceptance of near-beam detectors on either side: ~2 % with p @ 420m ~6 % with p @ 220m Translates into a probability of obtaining a fake DPE signature caused by protons from PU: Eg at 2x 1033 cm-2s-1 10% probability for a fake DPE signature for any background source that looks identical to the signal in the central CMS detector only. This is independent of the type of signal. Depends critically on the leading proton spectrum at the LHC which in turn depends on size of soft rescattering effects (rapidity gap survival factor) !
Pile-up Can be reduced by: Requiring correlation between ξ, M measured in the central detector and ξ, Mmeasured by the near-beam detectors Fast timing detectors that can determine whether the protons seen in the near-beam detector came from the same vertex as the hard scatter within 3mm Condition that no second vertex be found within 3mm vertex window left open by fast timing detectors Additional cuts exploiting difference in multiplicity between diff signal and non-diff background ; 12 s = M2 incl QCD di-jets + PU CEP H(120) bb (jets) (p tagger) CEP of H(120 GeV) → b bbar and H(140 GeV) → WW: S/B of unity for a SM Higgs M(2-jets)/M(p’s)
Machine induced backgrounds • Beam haloinduced bybetatron cleaningcollimators in contact with collimator group (Assman et al.) • Beam haloinduced bymomentum cleaningcollimators available (IHEP-Protvino) • Beam gas results from Protvino group to come • IP secondaries simulation results from machine group with tracking down to 214m available, on going extention down to 420m Beam Halo induced by beta-cleaning collimators • Count hits at FP420 location in x, x’, y, y’, dp/p until all protons are absorbed at collimators or other aperture limits (not FP420) • Normalization to the expected loss rate • Conclusion: at 10 sigma (3 mm) we may have a problem! • we move out at 15 sigma • we propose to move IN collimators
HV-LV supplies • Investigated 3 commercial solutions (CAEN, Eplax, Wiener) and ‘home-made’ option. CAEN and Wiener have ‘off-the-shelf’ radiation-tolerant products • LV/HV crates under the adjacent magnets • CAEN solution is an all-in-tunnel with short HV-LV cables • Wiener solution has LV in tunnel and HV in counting room • CAEN ok up to 140Gy (Atlas certified) except for A3501 (HV) which may need to be tested (though same components as A3540, tested ok by Atlas) • Some customization needed for CAEN solution: • CAN modules (transmission speed over 500m cable), currently being investigated • A3501 (HV), may need to increase max HV to 120 V • Wiener not radiation-tested but advertised as radiation-tolerant (Wiener ”ready to test acccording to instructions”) Radiation!
CAEN solution Cable: 500m A3009 LV A3501 HV A3009 LV A3501 HV A3486 48V Power • Delivery not possible before summer 2008 due to LHC production bottleneck. Only few samples by mid 2007. • CAN bus link over 500++m require slow down to 250kbit/s. This is not yet tested but should be ok. Requires modification of firmware: • High voltage only up to 120V (requires modification from 100V nominal) H. Larsen, INFN-Torino
