ATLAS Calorimeters Phase-1, Phase-2 upgrades • Calorimeters • Electronics CERN group participation Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Calorimeters • Calorimeter detectors are expected to operate correctly through all life of ATLAS and will not be changed. • Exception : upgrade of Forward calorimeter area • Beyond nominal luminosity ion build up can lead to loss of signal. • This is compounded by voltage drop across HV protection resistors located in the cryostat. • Effect of this will be signal degradation at the inner edge (high η) in the FCal • Beam heating could potentially cause Liquid Argon to boil Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Calorimeters • Options under discussion: • Replace FCAL with a new sFCAL • Smaller LAr gaps (250 um -> 100 um) • Needs additionally new summing boards and new cooling loops • Place a Mini-FCAL in front • Reduces energy and ionization in current FCAL to acceptable • Options CU-Diamonds, HP Xe, Cold Mini FCAL • All options being considered for Ph-2. Nothing in Ph-1. • All have (+-) implications with the EC cryostats Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Calorimeters • Opening of EC cryostats might be independently needed or not • To replace HEC Preamp electronics inside, at outer HEC radius • Will depend on exact dose and safety factors • Trying to measure this precisely • If needed, would integrate also FCAL upgrade Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • All calorimeters electronics will need to be upgraded • Beyond their foreseen lifetime • Beyond their foreseen radiation tolerance • Triggering capabilities are degrading at higher and higher μ • Current electronics limits the latency budget for L1 trigger • Full exchange of FE and BE electronics in Ph-2 for Tile & LAr • Ph-1 clearly compromises ATLAS physics capability • Raise trigger thresholds for EM objects-> inacceptable To keep rate @ 20kHz,need to raise threshold to 35 GeV Thresholds for non isolated EM objects vs. Inst. Luminosity @ 20kHz Level-1 Trigger rate Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • Use EM shower features (now used @ LVL2) to improve trigger @ LVL1: • keep single e-pT~25 GeV • Need more granularity at trigger LVL1 to reject jets faking triggers • Separate layer information helps (somewhat) for jets Proposal Use segmentation of 0.25×0.25 of MID layer generate Ratio factors Current Trigger (LVL1) Use 0.1×0.1 cells, Σ all depths Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • Implementation : • Increase the granularity sent to trigger Tower Builder Boards (TBBs) • Not build Towers any more, but transmit separate layers • No more analog transmission (UX15->USA15) but “super-cell” digitization on FE (SCDBs) • Keep analog system for Tile, as backup for LAr • Receive samples @ ~ROD like device (DPS), transform into Et, ΣEt... • Transmit those quantities to trigger processor (eFEX, jFEX) with sliding window algorithms Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • Constraints :Needs to be compatible with rest of system • No FEB exchanges, only change partial sums (on mezzanine boards) • More signals to route: new baseplanes at FE crates • Keep total latency compatible with current L1 (2.5 μs) • Should be used in Ph-2 Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • Should be used in Ph-2 Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Electronics for Calorimeters • Effort to introduce changes in adiabatic way • Keep Analog TBBs, cables, L1Calo preprocessor, processor…. • Install a demonstrator system in LS1 (~1Φ wedge) : • Modify one FE crate with new baseplane • Prototype SCDB, prototype DPS • Readout new trigger primitives, compare with standard L1Calo and with readout • In LS2 install new SCDBs boards in the FE, long fibers, New DPS boards in the BE • In LS3 full replacement of FE and BE RODs Calo upgrades 27.4.2012

E.g. Barrel and Std EMEC Slot # “Easy” case 1 empty slot Needs SCDBto treat 284 channels (PS: 30; Front: 112; Middle: 112; Back: 30) New baseplane Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
Tile plans • No possibility to exchange all electronics and drawers for Ph-1 • Mandatory for Ph-2 • Current R&D program explores several options Calo upgrades 27.4.2012
