C ompensating H adron C alorimetry

1. Compensating HadronCalorimetry Why do we need it? How it may work? Does it really work? If not, can we survive? Aldo Penzo, INFN-Trieste FERMILAB -Research Techniques Seminar – Aug. 9, 2007

2. What kind of talk? • Not a general “review”… • Rather an account of • “episodes” in Calorimetry R&D • examples of “compensation” methods • Therefore… • only partial coverage of the topic • (necessarily) subjective • (hopefully) not too biased • Purpose: outline the changing scope of what is called “compensation”

3. No need of high-tech for a good result... Joule's apparatus for measuring the mechanical equivalent of heat in which the "work" of a falling weight is converted into the "heat" of agitation in the water. Calorimeter used by J. Joule for his (final) determination of the mechanical equivalent of heat in which he obtained a value of 4.1538 Joules/cal. (Museum of the Department of Natural Philosophy at Glasgow University, Scotland  (1876)

5. Shower development and energy measurement

6. What’s going on in a developing shower? Everything that can be found in standard textbooks on Radiation Interactions in Matter (f.i. Landau-Lifschitz, Bruno Rossi, etc.) • Photons/electrons undergo EM interactions and produce • EM showers

7. gg po hadron Hadronsinteract strongly and produce hadronic cascades • copiously produced po generate gg pairs, originating EM showers inside hadronic cascades • 2 scales for hadronic cascade development: • labs for strongly interacting part • Xo for the EM part

8. lI X0, λI [cm] X0 Z 2 scales of shower development

9. Development of hadron cascade Large fluctuations due to po production

10. Dominance of low energy particles

11. Lead- scintillating fibre calorimeter Lateral cascade distribution The EM Component more concentrated on the central part of the shower: EM core

12. Hadronic vs EM response • Not all hadronic energy is “visible”: • Lost nuclear binding energy • neutrino energy • Slow neutrons, … For instance in lead (Pb): Nuclear break-up (invisible) energy: 42% Ionization energy: 43% Slow neutrons (E~ 1 MeV): 12% Low energy g’s (Eγ~ 1 MeV): 3%

13. e/h = 1 / Hadronic shower reduced vs EM (and much broader)

14. Interim outline High precision hadron calorimeters should have equal response to electromagnetic and strongly interacting particles (compensation condition e/h =1) in showers generated by incoming hadrons, in order to achieve: • linear response in energy to hadrons, • gaussian energy distribution for mono-energetic hadrons, • electron-to-pion ratio close to unity, constant with energy, • relative energy resolution (dE/E), improving as sqrt(1/E). This is of prime relevance for the measurement of jets, involving various particles of different energies, with a substantial fraction of neutral pions..

15. In practice… • Significant episodes of the straggle for compensation in hadron calorimetry will be summarized and different methods will be compared. • Recent progress aiming to differentiate and separately measure the shower products (interacting electromagnetically or strongly) will be discussed and technological solutions outlined

16. Compensation methods(mainly sampling calorimeters) • Intrinsic compensation: • Recover part of the “invisible energy” • Decrease the electromagnetic contribution (often using composite passive materials) • Off-line compensation: • Weighting methods • Multiple shower measurements (with 2 or more active media, selective to EM,etc)

17. High Z material as absorber • Full compensation can be achieved with high Z material; • large part of EM components will be deposited in absorber decreasing the EM energy deposition in active medium • Tuning the thickness of the absorber and active layer • High l - absorber that can partially recover the invisible hadronic energy via nuclear and collisions processes.

18. 238U as passive,scintillator as active media. • 238U: Absorber with high Z decreases EM response; • Slow neutrons induce fission in the 238U, that compensates losses due to “invisible” energy • Slow neutrons can be captured in the nucleus of 238U which emits a low energy γ’s and can further recover the “invisible” energy • Scintillator: Slow neutrons loose their kinetic energy via elastic collisions with hydrogen in the scintillator (LAr - Fabjan, Willis, 1977)

20. Response for e/h = 1 If e/h = 1 than: Hadron response linear Energy distribution “Poisson” Noise, etc Constant term (calibration, non-linearity, etc Statistical fluctuations

21. Tuning Pb thickness for e/p =1

22. So much about scintillator calorimeters: I will revisit later on… Now let’s turn to Si detectors in calorimetry: it so happened that such systems gave precise and interesting data on very detailed compensation effects…

23. 1983:Si-W EM prototype 24 Xo’s tungsten; 12 Si detectors (5x5cm) EM

24. SICAPO: Silicon Calorimeter Another hanging file reconfigurable calorimeter prototype

25. Large scale SICAPO test calorimeter The readout of this calorimeter consisted of 30 mosaic planes (of about 1600 cm2 active area) each made of 400 silicon detectors. A detector had an area of about 4 cm2, is 400 mm thick, and operated at full depletion. The calorimeter vessel could accommodate: • the Si mosaic detector planes and • a number of absorbers between the detector planes • The passive plates were W, Pb (High Z) • as well as Fe, …,G10 (Low Z) (arranged in any desired configuration)

26. Support plate for Si detectors

27. Assembling the Si detectors

28. Tuning of absorbers for SICAPO The passive plates’ configuration could be arranged in order to achieve: • local hardening effect (introducing thin low Z sheets near the detector’s planes) • filtering effect (by using combinations of High and Low Z absorbers)

29. Hardening • G10 plates inserted close to the detector planes….

30. Filtering PbFe–Si–PbFe configuration as a function of the thickness of Pb in the absorber (the overall absorber thickness, including the Fe plates is 23 mm).

38. Another example: in this case highly non-compensating • In a quest for rad-hard materials as active parts for calorimetry, quartz fibers • Only Cerenkov light, only (low energy) e+/-

39. The HF calorimeter • Steel absorber with embedded fused-silica-core optical fibers where Cherenkov radiation forms the basis of signal generation. • Thus, the detector is essentially sensitive only to the electromagnetic shower core and is highly non-compensating (e/h 5). • Above Cherenkov threshold (E = 190 keV for electrons) they generate Cherenkov light, thereby rendering the calorimeter mostly sensitive to the electromagnetic component of showers.

41. p/e values for SPACAL and HF

42. Resolution of HF • The electromagnetic energy resolution is dominated by photoelectron statistics and can be expressed in the customary form. The stochastic term a = 198% and the constant term b = 9%. • The hadronic energy resolution is largely determined by the fluctuations in the neutral pion production in showers, and when it is expressed as in the electromagnetic case, a = 280% and b = 11%.

44. The challenge…. Mockett 1983 SLAC Summer Institute A technique is needed that is sensitive to the relative fraction of electromagnetic energy and hadronic energy deposited by the shower. This could be done hypothetically if the energy were sampled by two media: one which was sensitive to the beta equals one electrons and another which was sensitive to both the electrons and other charged particles. For example one sampler could be lucite which is sensitive only to the fast particles, while the other sampler could be scintillator.
