Prospects • γ beam from π0→2γ will be used to calibrate the Liq. Xe calorimeter in MEG experiment @ piE5, PSI • Resolution required in MEG experiment • Beam Time : Sep. 24th to Dec. 10th
MEG experiment detectors • Liq. Xe calorimeter Design of liq.Xe calorimeter has almost completed. The start of the construction: 2004 Subjects to be solved: Stress, Deformation, Heat Load, Need of filler
Filler study for the Liq.Xe detector Some incident photons lose their energy in Liq.Xe, which fills space between the detector wall and PMTs. To fill the space with materials of long radiation length (“Filler”) will improve the efficiency of this detector. Signal cable Honeycomb (SUS314) vacuum γ PMT Liq.Xe Incident window PMT holder (G10) PMT cover (acrylic)
Filler study Requirement for Filler: Long radiation length Do not contaminate liq.Xe The same expansion coefficient as the glass used in Stem A mixture of Epoxy resin and glass. Filler is attached directly to the PMT.
Cooling Test PMTs with Filler are cooled down to 150K. The temperature of PMT is controlled by Liq.N2, a cold finger (Cu pipe) and a heater. PMT heater
Now studying… The difference between the thermal expansion rate of epoxy resin and of SUS. Stress on the PMT cover
COBRA Magnet Construction finished! Superconducting coil in cryostat. Compensation coil potentiometer Support frame COBRA Magnet: Solenoid magnet for positron spectrometer Gradient field for high rate events
On the axis Final Excitation Test completed. *Magnetic field inside the SC was measured. →Good Agreement with the calculation! *Fringe field around the photon detector region was measured. →Suppressed by compensation coils. On the axis Really graded!!
The Schedule of MEG experiment Photon detector : Large prototype @PSI background estimation The construction start in 2004. COBRA magnet : Shipping to PSI on Sep. 26th Installation & Engineering runs in piE5 Beam line : Ready by the spring of 2004 Positron tracker : The construction start in 2004. Electronics & DAQ system : Start assembling in 2004. All the detectors will be installed in piE5 beam line by 2005. Engineering runs will start in 2005. MEG experiment starts at the beginning of 2006.
Summary • Beam test using monochromatic gamma beam starts on Oct. 2nd. • The design of the photon detector has almost completed and now studying details. (Filler problems and so on) • The construction of COBRA Magnet has finished. (Good performance! ) • Engineering runs will start in 2005, and MEG experiment at the beginning of 2006.
