  5. Technical specification Response in a magnetic field: There shall be a complete absence of internal discharge at normal operating voltage, in zero field, and for magnetic fields between 1 and 4T, at angles in the range 0o to 26o to the VPT axis. CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 5

  10. Determining the grid orientation • The result of the ‘’ scan depends on the ‘’ orientation of the grid. (Not fixed in prodn) •  is determined during visual inspection. (Laser interference pattern) CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 10

Faceplate irradiation 91.4% transmission of PbWO4 spectrum after 20.8 kGy Radiation Hardness: Sample faceplates shall, neglecting surface reflection losses, transmit at least 90% of PbWO4 light, following a dose of 20 kGy and exposure to a fluence of 5x1014 fast neutrons cm-2.

  20. Transverse Noise Analysis by Chris Seez et al: ‘Transverse noise’ ETnoise = Enoisex sin Allows for light loss in PWO (dose vs ),etc Exploits variation in VPT response to achieve uniform ETnoise after ‘sorting’ But assumes Response A  34e/MeV (28e/MeV more realistic) CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 20

Noise simulation of ‘MGPA’(From talk by Mark Raymond) 3 TeV fullscale 1.5 TeV fullscale Possible noise improvements for endcap if reduce dynamic range requirement to 1500 GeV Cpf -> Cpf/2, Rpf -> 2.Rpf charge amp. gain doubled and subsequent noise sources less significant CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 21

  22. Anomalous behaviour at 1.8T CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 22

  23. Response vs time CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 23

  24. Anomalous behaviour at 4T CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 24

  25. Summary • VPT Production is well underway (>20% delivered on schedule) • RAL capacity for testing at 1.8T is adequate and allows for some re-testing if required • Batch VPT testing at 4T and faceplate irradiation checks progressing smoothly at Brunel • The measured performance of the VPTs matches the EE design objectives, but ‘sorting’ will be required to accommodate the spread in anode response • Anomalous behaviour has been observed in some tubes at certain angles in a high magnetic field. This is under investigation by RIE CMS Week, CERN, 2002 R M Brown - RAL 25
