  2. Overview • The MAMMA project: Muon Atlas MicroMegasActiVity (J. Wotschack) • The Saclay beam test in 2009 at Cern: • Resistive detector efficiency in high intensity beam • Preliminary results • Next beam test preparation and resistive bulk characterization • Gain measurement • Stability in time • Spark topology of the resistive detectors • Conclusion RD51 Collaboration Meeting, Bari ̶ October 8th, 2010

  3. The MAMMA Project LsLHC = 10 × LLHC = 1035 cm2.s-1 • Increase of the neutron, photon and hadron background • Replacement or upgrade of the muon forward chambers • Requirements: • High rate capability (≤ 10 kHz.cm-2) • Spatial resolution ~100 µm (θ ≤ 45 °) • Radiation hardness and good ageing properties • Time resolution ~few ns • Level1 triggering capability • Large surface • MPGD: Bulk Micromegas • Fast and efficient ion collection • TPC mode possible: sensitivity to incidence angle. • « bulk » production process suitable for large surfaces  • Resistive coating may solve the sparking issue  RD51 Collaboration Meeting, Bari ̶ October 8th, 2010

  20. Charge seen by the strips • G380V ~ 2 G360V • Q380V~ 1.2 Q360V • Trigger on Channel 2 • Vmesh = 340V & Vmesh = 360V R17, Joerg like R14, Resistive strips 300 kΩ/□ RD51 Collaboration Meeting, Bari ̶ October 8th, 2010

  21. Spark topology of resistive detectors • Resistive strip detector has similar spark signal (exponential) than non-resistive detector but with an attenuation about 30 % and similar time constant (=RC) • Carbon-Loaded Kapton and Joerg-like detectors have shaping-like signals but the Joerg-like detector signal are shorter and ten times smaller • Signal from CLK are seen on the adjacent pads. RD51 Collaboration Meeting, Bari ̶ October 8th, 2010

  22. Conclusions • It is still to soon to say that a resistive coating could solve the spark from operation. • In some configuration the resistive coating is able to contain or even suppress the spark signal. • We are now ready for the next beam test at Cern to determine in high rate condition operation the efficiency of the various resistive Micromegas. • After the choice of a technology spark proof, other stages are to come, ageing studies, larger surface, etc… RD51 Collaboration Meeting, Bari ̶ October 8th, 2010
