Alignment of two objects: • omit Z • omit rotZ Y Y Y X X X • Measure: • translation X • translation Y • - rotX • rotY • Equivalent to • 4 points (X,Y)
Momentum Measurement of charged particles in the L3 experiment: Chamber Position Monitoring Detector Detector Detector Muon Particle Track • Lorentz Force: • Track Curvature measurement
Direct measurement: two anti // Rasniks: lens light source + image sensor … would only require path of sight of 20 mm2…. …. along beampipe…..!
Instead: use space away from beam tube, • at larger R: • alignment in two steps: • Reference Rings • via Radial Spokes • (double) anti // Rasniks
Monitor X,Y of (both) QD0 end ref’s with respect to RR (with Rasniks) to be calibrated on 3D measuring machine
Rasnik Lines-of Sight spokes
Spoke • length 3.5 m; • has only one function: to transfer radial position better than 1 μm • Material: Zerodur: thermal expansion coefficient < 0.2 x 10-6
Alignment is NOT influented by: • (common) deformation of RRs (sag, spoke load) • temperature of individual RR • (common) deformation of spoke wheel (spoke weight compression) • temperature of individual spoke wheel
Steel ball Zerodur rod (6 mm x 6 mm x 3500 mm Spoke tip on RR side: contact definition < 0.1 μm spoke support tube: flexo suspension
