  1. Federico Ronchetti INFN, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati EMCAL: project update- Italy - LNF - Frascati Fixture production Module assembly (proto) WLS fibers processing Lead procurement (proto) CT- Catania APD characterization and test SM Crates production

  2. LNF status • Module production • design fixed recently (25-26 june) • Universal fixture production • Completed: Base, tool-plates, sleds, cylindrical rails • Ongoing: center-blocks, load cell plates, cross-beam • Vacuum chamber for WLS fibers processing • Magnetron gun finally delivered and installed • Chamber closed • Out gassing chamber (10-8 bar) • WLS fiber polishing • First bundles ice-polished • Quality checks underway • Lead procurement • Lead tiles for prototype delivered • Ongoing reshuffling (from by-measure to by-module packs)

  3. LNF universal fixture Design by eng. Mario Del Franco

  4. Module front plate Is the governing dimension Fixture parts Design by Mario Del Franco

  5. Fixtures realization progress Picture not up-2-date: more components than shown have been machined

  6. U. Fixture • All components materials for missing parts are at hand • Design for proto is module finalized (WSU EMCAL meeting last 25-26 of June) • Full fixture production (2xLNF) over by the end of July.

  7. Compression Table

  8. Fiber processing chamber

  9. At present: out gassing phase

  10. WLS fibers polishing Side to be aluminized APD / light guide coupled side

  11. Fiber module insertion tools Modified WSU design by M. D. F.

  12. Lead tiles metrological tests Tile thickness

  13. Lead tiles metrological tests Hole diameter

  14. Lead tiles metrological tests Inter-hole distance

  15. Short term schedule

  16. CT work in progress • Undergoing activity in CT: • EMCAL Super-Module Crate Prototype • Installation of universal module stacking fixture (delivered by LNF) • Activity in CERN • Mechanical Integration of SM-crate • Load Tests

  17. Thecrate prototype

  18. SM crate load test @ CERN • Design • blueprints • materials • safety • Realization • The SM-crate proto has been tested at 0° angle

  19. SM crate load test @ CERN Dummy strip modules

  20. Additional testing phases

  21. Catania planning for 2007-8 (mechanical) Mechanical work summary for 2007 Work in progress @ CT: • Installation of 1 universal stacking fixture and 1 compression table. • Procurement of ancillary equipment (load cells, amplifiers, etc) Work in progress @ CERN: • Load Test of the SM crate proto at 90° • Insertion test SM • Construction of the insertion plane

  22. Catania activity electronics, offline • New lab space available for massive APD tests • Procured all the cards of the standard PHOS/EMCal electronic chain to be used for the APD test. This standard CERN set-up is almost ready (work is in progress on the software installation). • Draft for protocol for APD test established • First prototype for APD characterization as a function of the temperature is ready. Characterization of ALL 85 APD+CSP is done. • First version of track-matching ready and in CVS.

  23. First set-up for APD characterization LED flasher Box cointaing APD Alice-jet1 Catania

  24. First prototype for APD characterization as a function of the temperature Standard –EMCal electronic chain Fluid from a chiller at a fixed temperaure Light from LED flasher Alice-jet1 Catania

  25. Alice-jet1 Catania

  26. Barrelto EMCAL trackmatching Presented to ACAT07 First version of track-matching ready and in CVS. Track matching efficiency and contamination for PHYTHIA minimum bias events Aim: To clean the cluster sample for photon analysis (jets) adding PID information from EMCAL to high momentum charged tracks Alice-jet1 Catania

  27. Catania planning for 2008 (electronics, offline) • APD procurement • Test setup optimization • start of massive APD testing • Test beam data and cosmic ray data analysis • Track-matching optimization and simulation studies on jet and electron showers.
