News on time calibration Collaboration Meeting Amsterdam, 22-26 Nov 2010 Agustín S. Losa IFIC (CSIC – Universitat de València)
Outline • OB system status • The new time calibration • Autobinning: Increasing chances for a goodfit • Intra-Line calibration: T0s • “Old way” vs “Automatic Calculation” • First floors calibration • Inter-Line calibration: Time offsets • Laser OB • LED OB • Conclusions • To-Do List Agustín S. Losa – AmsterdamCollaboration Meeting
Status of the OB system • Current list of Optical Beacon not working • LED: L11F2, L11F21, L12F15 Laser: L7F0 • No new dead OB, after the reconnection of lines 6 and 9 • OB of L10F2 recovered • Reminder: Optical Beacon of line 9 on floor 21 needs “EN_ACQ =0” when this Beacon is not flashing • Specialbeaconforopticalpropertieson L6F2 works: • The 6 LEDs of the TOP group emit light at 385, 400, 440, 470, 505and 518 nm • New RunSetups for OB runs have been created after the reconnection, still LED calibration runs no taken • New RunSetups for OB runs will be created beforeHV tunning Agustín S.

“Old way” T0 Calculation (Reminder) Line 1 Flash OMs by an optical beacon Plot the distribution of hit arrival times for each ARS Fit such distribution with a Gaus or Gaus @Exponential function Determine Tpeak , the time of the function peak storey 21 storey 15 storey 9 storey 2 T0 = ClockPhase + TPeak Agustín S. Losa – AmsterdamCollaboration Meeting
“Old way” vs “Autobinning” Create a histogram with 0.2 ns bins NEW Choose binning • So far the analysis of data to extract the T0 have been carried on “manually” in an iterative way • With the new method, refitting with different bin size of the 1800 histograms is made automatically and human inspection is replaced by a visual quick cross-check of 30 images per sector. Fill this histogram Fill histogram Fit this histogram with a Gaus@Expo Fit histogram Autobinning Increase histogram bin size by 0.2 ns No Visual Inspection: Success Bin Size > 4 ns No Yes Yes Choose the binning which maximizes PFit with 0.08 < PFit < 0.95 Exit Agustín S. Losa – AmsterdamCollaboration Meeting
Autobinning: Increasing chances for a goodfit • Fit all the time histograms with an automated method: • Fit to the convolution of a Gaussian and an exponential • Try different bin sizes (from 0.2 ns to 4 ns, in 0.2 ns steps) • Choose the fit with the best P(χ²) • This method increases significantly the odds to have a good fit notautobinned (0.2ns) autobinned (1.4ns) Agustín S. Losa – AmsterdamCollaboration Meeting
Autobinning: Increasing chances for a goodfit • Final fitusing a colourcodetohelp in the visual check: • Yellow • Fitted more than 50ns Red Max statistic < 50 hits Purple OB-OM angle > 120° • Cyan • Different amplitudes >75% Brown (hits-signal / flashes) < 0.01 Green(Blue ) OK (hits-signal / flashes > 1) Agustín S.

Conclusions • The new automated method for the time calibration is ready. • The method searches the best bin size to fit the hit arrival time distributions automatically. • More than 1800 histograms fitted. • The method is fast and reduces significantly visual inspection. • Results are compatible with the “old way” method. • No dead OB after reconnection and recovery of the L10F2 • Special beacon for optical properties on L6F2 works and is ready. Agustín S. Losa – AmsterdamCollaboration Meeting
To-Do List • Intra-Line calibration: • Apply automatic method to all the LED calibration sets • Compute new T0s after HV tuning • Study unstable PMTs • Calibrate the first floors • Inter-Line calibration: • Obtain time offsets for all periods • Study time offsets evolution along all periods • Use LED-Beacons as a cross-check for the time offsets • Start to use the Special beacon for optical properties on L6F2 with different wavelengths and the Nanobeacons on L9F1 Agustín S.
