  1. J-Cal Construction Plan Tatsuya Chujo University of Tsukuba (for the ALICE J-Cal Project)

  2. Organization (as of April 2009) • Staff : 6 • Y. Miake (Prof.; project leader) • S. Esumi (Assoc. Prof. ; physics analysis, simulation) • T. Chujo (Assist. Prof. ; design, construction) • M. Inaba (Assoc. Prof. ; trigger, readout, electronics) • T. Horaguchi (new post-doc) • M. Shimomura (new RA) • Students : 10+4 D2: K. Watanabe D1: D. Sakata, M. Sano M2: H. Yokoyama, K. Midori, T. Todoroki, E. Hamada, M. Kimura M1: Y. Sekine, T. Takeuchi UG: 4 students.

  3. Detector assembly, workflow and costs • We visited Wayne State Univ. on Dec. 2008, and leaned how to build the modules, strips, and SM from Tom C. and company. • We think that it is possible to make modules (and maybe strips) at Tsukuba, if we have stacking stations locally. • Current plan: building modules (or strips) at Tsukuba, and ship them to CERN (or Wayne State) for the final SM assembly, then install to ALICE.

  4. Stacking station (@ Wayne State Univ.) • To make one module: • < 2 hours for stacking (Pb, Scint) • 24 hours for compression • 24 hours for pressure control and monitor. • Total: 2.1 days • 288 moduels x 2.1 days = 604 days per SM. • We need at least 2 or 3 stacking stations, and pressure control/monitoring systems, in order to make modules in the reasonable speed. • Detail planning and discussions with Wayne State U. are necessary.

  5. Back/front plates, compression plate, support side plates Special parts developed at Wayne Sate. Can be purchased from Wayne State.

  6. Lead Absorber Plates/Scint. Plates. • Pb plates: Vulcan. • Scint: Uniplast, Russia • takes 6 months for the new production. • need a special cutting (at Wayne state)

  7. Fibers, APD, pre-amp., light guide Can be purchased them in Japan WLS fiber: Y11 Si APD: S8664-55 pre-amp: GN-0261-3A APD charge sensitive amplifier

  8. Costs estimates Budget: Total of ≲$1 M (USD) in 5 yrs (Grant in Aid, JSPS). • 1 ALICE EMCal module (4 towers) $1,327 (USD, w/o assembly labor, APD, pre-amp, Strong back, FEE). • 3 SM (= 864 modules) • Mechanical: $ 1,327 x 864 = $ 1,146,528 (USD) • Readout: ~$50 (APD, preamp) x 4 x 864 = $172,800(USD) • FEM (4x864 = 3,456 ch, 26 CHF/ch) : $ 89,856(USD) • Total: ~$1.4 M (USD) + Mechanical support + shipping cost.

  11. Summary on construction • We are proposing to build and install the same EMCal on the opposite side of the ALICE-EMCal, to enhance the capability of B-to-B jet physics. • Acceptance: 3 SM of ALICE-EMCal (1.0 x 0.7). • Modules (or Strips) can be built at Tsukuba, and ship them to CERN (or Wayne State Univ.) for the final SM assembly and installation . • Need new support structure for the J-Cal. • Start the mass production in Fall/Winter 2009. • Current target date: installation from summer 2010.

  12. Backup

  13. Naming conventions (ALICE-EMCal) • 1 module = 4 towers (4 APD readouts, 1 readout = 6x6 (holes) = 36 WLS fibers) • 1 strip = 12 modules • 1 super module (SM) = 24 strips • 1 SM = ½ sector • 1 sector = 2 SMs.

  14. ALICE-EMCal Physics Parameters 1SM : 22 degrees (0.4 rad) in phi, 0.7 in eta.
