  39. Quarkonia in CMS Yield/month (with 50% duty factor) J/  family sM = 60 MeV Russell Betts - UIC

  40. L1 HLT Data Acquisition and Trigger Two-level DAQ/Trigger architecture L1: Low-level hardware trigger Muon track segments Calorimetric towers No tracker info Output rate = few-10 kHz HLT: online farm Replaces traditional L2, L3, etc. Refit muon and calorimeter information, and add tracker info Output rate = 50 Hz Data rate approx. 2-5 MB/event (vs. 1 MB for pp)  100-200 MB/second written to tape Typical CMS Russell Betts - UIC

  41. Main Types of Trigger Required by Physics • multiplicity/centrality:”min-bias”, “central-only” • high pT probes: muons, jets, photons, quarkonia etc. High Occupancy but Low Luminosity • many low level trigger objects may be present, but less isolated than in p+p. Level 1 may be difficult for high pT particles • L1 in AA has larger backgrounds than in pp due to underlying event • we can read most of the events up to High Level Trigger and do partial High Level Trigger can do a better job than L1 ! High Level Trigger (HLT) Russell Betts - UIC

  42. Online farm Online farm Improvement Acceptance x2.5 h pT Illustration Of Online Farm Power: Low pTJ/ψ See CMS Analysis Note 2004/02 • Detection of low pT J/ψ requires efficient selection of low momentum, forward going muons. Simple hardware L1 dimuon trigger is not sufficient Without online farm (HLT) With online farm (HLT) Russell Betts - UIC

  43. (5.32 < η < 6.71) (5.32 < η < 6.86) Forward Detectors: CASTOR and TOTEM ZDC (z =  140 m) • Near Hermetic coverage (out to |η|<7 with CASTOR) • Physics • Centrality • Nuclear PDFs - particularly gluon distributions • Momentum fractions x ~ 10-6 – 10-7 at scales of a few GeV2 in pp • Diffractive processes (10-20% of total cross section at high energies) • Limiting Fragmentation • Peripheral and Ultra-Peripheral collisions • DCC, Centauros, Strangelets …… CASTOR Coverage Russell Betts - UIC

  47. People and Institutions • Russia: Moscow State University, Dubna • France: Lyon • Georgia: Tbilisi • Hungary: KFKI Budapest • India: Mumbai • New Zealand: Auckland • Greece: Athens, Demokritos, Ioannina • USA NP: Rice, UC Davis, Kent State, LANL, MIT, Ohio, UIC, U Iowa, U Kansas • Turkey, Adana • In general: increased interest due to developments at RHIC and our progress in evaluation of capabilities • Presently ~15-20 people involved directly in studies/discussions etc. • Expect to grow to ~100 by the time LHC starts, ~50 from the US, including PostDocs and Graduate Students Russell Betts - UIC

  48. US Funding Progress (I) • Slow Negotiations with DoE Nuclear Physics • RHIC is large piece of nuclear physics budget • Daily difficulties with supporting the program, competing needs of different experiments, HI vs spin pp program etc – even before FY06 budget !! • BUT: there is a need to plan for the future: • RHIC luminosity upgrades • Detector upgrades, possible new detectors • LHC proposals: ALICE, ATLAS, CMS • 2004 NSAC was asked to form a sub-committee to evaluate whole relativistic heavy ion program. • Recommendation #2 – “The LHC will open up a new regime in relativistic heavy-ion physics with significant opportunities for new discoveries. The Subcommittee recommends that: • Participation in the LHC should become a new component of the US Heavy Ion program • This participation should receive comparable investment priority with each of the two near term upgrade programs for the two large RHIC detectors” Russell Betts - UIC

  49. US Funding Progress (II) • US DoE Nuclear Physics Request • People and equipment for High Level Trigger farms ($3.9M) • Construction of ZDC ~$0.4M • Permission to participate in the program (~30 PhD+15 GS by 2007) • Later M&O with main “service” contribution going towards DAQ/HLT/Computing • The FY06 Budget • NP –8.4%. RHIC small experiments terminated. Running threatened. • NSAC Panel to revisit Long Range Plan – June Report? • But they didn’t say NO ! • Michael Murray (U Kansas) gets NSF Career Award to prototype CMS ZDCs • NP groups allowed to reprogram operating funds to underwrite CMS activities. • We are optimistic and believe that CMS offers the BEST possibilities for exciting heavy ion physics with the LHC Russell Betts - UIC

  50. Summary and Outlook LHC will Extend Energy Range - in Particular High pT Reach - of HI Physics to Provide a New Window on QCD Matter CMS Detector offers Superb Capabilities • Full calorimeter coverage • Superior momentum resolution due to 4T magnetic field • High mass resolution for quarkonia • Centrality, multiplicity, spectra, energy flow to very low pT • No modification to detector hardware • New High Level Trigger (HLT) algorithms for HI • Zero Degree Calorimeter, CASTOR and TOTEM provide unique access to forward physics Russell Betts - UIC
