TOFfor New-TPC experiment Mizuki Sumihama May, 2nd, 2008 Time-of-Flight Missing mass of single-K+, proton New-DC
Setup of forward TPC New-DC DC1 DC2 DC3 TOF Dipole ~ 1 m FWD(Plastic) -1745 -830 -460 +1000 +3100 [mm] Momentum: No SVTX(SSD) , New-DC TOF : rf-TOF-wall , (Distance between target and fwd is ~1m.)
Tagger-Plastic counters for 2 nsec structure of RF signals Standard setup : We use Start counter to solve 2 ns ambiguity of RF signals. But New-TPC exp. : Distance between TGT and FWD is about 1m (too long!), and TOF between TGT and FWD is not negligible and difficult to solve the 2 ns ambiguity. Use tagger plastic counters
2 nsec structure in Tagger Before time-work correction After time-work correction 2 ns ambiguity can be solved by Tagger plastic counters
Mass spectra Few events not to solve 2ns-ambiguity.
Missing mass spectra ~5 days Eg < 2 GeV Eg < 2.4 GeV All n(p+) MM(K+) MM(p) Eg function up to 3GeV temporary determined by Kato w p0, h Require a hit in outers No signal of p0, h
Plots from the data with standard setup –Not any request at side region q<25 degree np0 h MM(K+) MM(p)
Z-vertex Target position q < 14 degree Polar angle for single track Vertex resolution for 2 track events is not good because of No SVTX(SSD) and small opening angles. improvement including New-DC ??
TOF with Tag-PL and Outers Front view of TDC, Inner and Outer • One-side readout for Inner • counters, time resolution is • about 800 ps by Yamamura. • Start timing is determined • by RF signals and solve 2 ns • ambiguity by Tagger-PL. • Stop timing is determined by • Outers. Time resolution is • about 200 ps by Yamamura.

New-DC • Accept events go through forward. • Help to determine momentum vector • and vertex points in mixed magnetic field • of Dipole and Solenoid . TPC • Pitch 14 mm • YY’UU’VV’ 6 planes • U/V angle 30 degree • the same as DC2 and DC3 Forward LEPS New-DC Installation of NDC in program for side tracking (TPCana) is by Uchida.

outlook Egamma calibration up to 3 GeV Alignment of New-DC Require hits in all 6 planes relax to 5 or 4 hits. The number of clusters in NDC is sometime huge. need a cut condition by an efficient /safety way Check run dependence of t0/xt-curve ………………..
