Longitudinal Profile Monitor: situation Sept. 2003 LPM is a LARP contribution/“collaboration”, not in-house project LPM is studied by Berkeley lab, (need similar instrument in ALS) (n.b. same group responsible for LHC Luminosity measurement) Initial plan: 2002 R&D (APD/ Laser mixing) 2003 Choice of technology + Prototype design 2004 Production electronics and instruments 2005 Install in LHC (2006 reserved for transverse instruments) SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03

Photon Counting: MCP PMT Hammamatsu R3809U Photon counting has its problems too, For high dynamic range, there must be no systematic false counts SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
MCP-PMT: Dynamic range Self-generated false counts after event: need to gate detector off for 1us after each event: count rate drops to 10’s of kHz. 102 900 ns SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
Proposed Laser Mixing System: filters Synch light, 633nm 8 bit Detector 350nm Mixing crystal 40 MHz Laser Ti:Sapphire 800nm Very narrow light spectrum is used, ~3nm (1% of available) Laser pulse timing phase-locked to Machine RF, with offset Laser used to sample with 10ps pulses at 40MHz Max. Data rate at laser frequency, could be 80MHz? SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
Laser Mixing: LPM High Sensitivity Mode 25ns laser sample interval, 500 sample points/scan 400MHz Bucket 2.5ns Increment delay by 50 ps / machine rev If PMT is 1% accurate, still need to integrate over 1000 samples to get spec accuracy: 55s + settling time ( Spec. 10-4 in 10s ) SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03

LM Concerns: • Low wavelength conversion efficiency • - single photon counting • - needs longer integration time • Requires exclusive operating modes • -std/high resolution modes • High res. integration time too long: • - 10 sec: increase to 1min SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
LM system is unlikely to meet specs for integration time, and is not suitable for abort gap protection (too complex) • If LM system is used, 3 separate instruments will be needed. • Avalanche Photon counting has its problems too: as the count rate reduces, the number of detectors becomes large. • No work is being done on the APD method.

Photon Production and the Abort Gap Monitor Calculated photon production (450-900nm) : 0.0014 photons/proton at the extraction mirror (…& ions?) At injection energy, abort level is now x700: 60p/ps x 700 = 5.88^6 photons/100ns/turn = 6 10^9 photons / 100ms integration The 7TeV abort level remains at 60p/ps: 840 000 000 photons/integrated over 100ms =0.3nJ signal (n.b.this is corrected from the value given in talk, the D3 bending magnet is more efficient at 7TeV) From this must be taken transmission losses, detector efficiency(10%), bandwidth(1%), background noise… SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
Abort Gap monitor is important machine operating instrument; needs simple robust solution. A separate instrument is considered. 2003: LARP priority for LPM reduced, no funding given (no work done) LBNL team concentrates on Luminosity. 2004: LDM priority raised: ¾ FTE available for LPM+AG (no material) Priorities now set: 1/ Abort Gap monitor 2/ Luminosity 3/ LPM (R&D tool?) To increase the reliability/availability and performance of the AG and LPM, separate, warm undulators are considered, cost and initial design for March ‘04 SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03

The Situation 12/03: Tests to establish Sensitivity and Dynamic range of MCP-PMT …answers for Chamonix? Studies to establish reliable AG design: accessibility, few interventions AG data needed for warm undulator design. More effort should be available in 2005/6 for LPM system: technology choice still open but time very short. SCH: LEADE LPM+AG 15/12/03
