COMMON CONSIDERATIONS • R&D for PHASE-II builds on the design of the PHASE-I UPGRADES • In some cases PHASE-I UPGRADES => produce detectors that can operate successfully throughout PHASE-II • in other cases PHASE-I UPGRADES provide an infrastructure that can facilitate the additional modifications necessary for PHASE-II • demands of PHASE-II may require the complete replacement of some detectors • R&D for PHASE-II and PHASE-I UPGRADES take place over the same 5 year period 2011-2016 => competion for human and financial resources S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
COMMON CONSIDERATIONS • The tracking system has to be enhanced • higher radiation resistance (both instantaneous and integrated) • silicon sensor operation require more stringent temperature control (to limit the leakage current in the high radiation environment) • upgraded Silicon Tracker will dissipate as much power as the present one if not more • More efficient cooling methods have to be used => to reduce the mass of cooling pipes and heat exchangers • new tracker has to comply with constraints coming from the existing detector => total available cross section of conductors, cooling pipes etc S.

ATLAS S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
ATLAS Upgrade of the Inner Tracking System The current detector consists of 3 layers of pixels, 4 layers of silicon microstrips (SCT) and a straw tube tracker equipped with radiators to generate transition radiation (TRT) An additional innermost layer (IBL) of pixel detectors will be added to the ID during the LS1 The new tracker concept presented in the LETTER OF INTENT is an all-silicon design, based on technologies that are already being prototyped, or are a realistic improvement on existing solution An all-silicon-detector tracker: pixel sensors at the inner radii Surrounded by microstripsensors largely based on existing solutions Before the start of production of the detector there will be several more years of R&D addressing the requirements of HL-LHC physics in particular finer granularity higher bandwidth reduced material This effort should allow the use of more performant technologies as they become available.

ATLAS PIXEL system I-beam solution baseline for the innermost two layers. thin carbon-fibre laminates provide stiffness and a mechanical support for the pixel modules. different module sizes in the two layers inherent stiffness not need an external support structure. bare stave contribution to the material budget is only 0.43% X0 per layer / normal allows fast replacement can be mounted as “clam shells” for extraction without breaking the LHC vacuum. End view illustrating layout of I-beams for two inner pixel layers I-beam concept prototype and cross-section diagram for two inner pixel layers The core of the mechanical support will be made of extremely light weight carbon foam, which still provides a very high thermal conductivity.

Cooling • CO2 two-phase will achieve enhanced cooling performance with a lightweight system. • Some of the main advantages of CO2 cooling are: • the high latent heat allows the use of small pipes • as well as large heat load per single channel, possibly reducing needs for manifolding; • the high heat transfer coefficient allows smaller heat-exchanger contacts • CO2 is a natural substance, which is more environmentally friendly and less expensive than fluorocarbons. S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
Cooling R&D consists of characterizing through laboratory measurements heat transfer and mass flow of two-phase CO2 in small channel deriving guidelines for detector cooling optimization dimensions of the pipes and heat exchangers, and operating pressure developing numerical models that correctly describe the flows and heat transfers provide all the information needed for the pixel and for the whole tracker cooling design design and engineering of the system and analysis of system aspects such as manifolding, which will pose novel challenges due to the much larger scale of the system. S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
Cooling • The entire tracker will be cooled by a two phase system with liquid boiling in the staves, disks and petals • to cool the modules and remove all heat produced in the tracker volume. • The overall power to be removed from the tracker volume is currently • estimated at • 180 kW nominal • 240 kW with safety-factors, at a coolant temperature of - 35 °C. • Liquid CO2 is chosen as the coolant baseline, because of its high heat transfer coefficient at the required temperature • => This allows for very small cooling-tube diameters (2 mm), which reduce radiation lengths, are easier to handle, and reduce forces due to thermal expansions and contractions. • ATLAS is building up experience with CO2 cooling in the IBL project. • There is a large development needed to go from the IBL scale (3 kW) to the 200 kW needed • for the tracker. The aim is to scale up an IBL-like design to about 20 kW and then install 10 • or so identical copies in the space in USA15 vacated by the current C3F8 compressors. In case • of unforeseen problems, the option of using fluorocarbon cooling is kept as a back-up. This will • require a mixture of C2F6 and C3F8 to achieve the required termperatures. • The CO2 cooling system transports cold fluids (- 40 °C) and therefore needs insulated lines. • The current ID cooling system transports room-temperature fluids, and so are not insulated. Furthermore • the CO2 tubes need to be tested up to about 100 bar, beyond the safe operation of the • current ID tubes. Hence new CO2 lines will need to be installed. The number though is very small: • 10 lines are planned from USA15, one to each PP2 platform. Each line has two concentric tubes, • the inner as inlet and the outer as return line; these are surrounded by a few cm of insulation. At • PP2 each will be distributed into many more lines (about 45), with a final splitting inside the tracker • of about one to four S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
CMS Upgrade Pixel System The goal of the Phase 1 upgrade is to replace the present pixel detector • replacement of the current 3-layer barrel (BPIX), 2-disk endcap (FPIX) system • => with a 4-layer barrel, 3-disk endcap system for four hit coverage • ultra-lightweight support with CO2 cooling • displacement of the electronic boards and connections out of the tracking volume for material reduction • The upgraded pixel system will have a reduced mass, a reduced innermost radius and increased lever arm Schematic view of the upgraded pixel detector S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
CMS Upgrade Pixel Detector Upgrade To reduce material, adopt two-phase CO2 cooling and light-weight mechanical support, moving the electronic boards and connections out of the tracking volume The objective is to have the system installed and commissioned during the 2016 shutdown Two-phase CO2 cooling will replace the current single phase C6F14 resulting in significant material reduction. We plan to use thin-walled stainless steel pipes with a diameter of about 1.6mm and wall thickness of 0.1mm which will provide enough cooling power for each pixel sub-assembly based on a continuous loop. Further material reduction will be achieved by using longer twisted pair or light-weight flex-cables to carry the signals to the optical hybrid boards; these boards, as well as the port cards and cooling manifolds, will be moved out of tracking region. changing the minimum diameter of the central part of the CMS beam pipe cylindrical piece is made out of 0.8mm thick beryllium from 58mm to 50mm it is proposed to install a new central beam pipe with an inner diameter of 50mm together with the new pixel detector. The smaller beam pipe diameter allows the reduction of the first barrel layer radius from 4.4 cm to about 3.9 cm. A further reduction to 3.4 cm is under study. S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
CMS Upgrade Prototype of the mechanical structure for the innermost layer. To illustrate its lightweight, a carbon fiber ladder is laid upon the half-barrel. The mechanical stability of the ladder is given by the cooling tubes. Edge Cooling Concept: cooling tube captured inside carbon-carbon ring with carbon fiber skins. Each module has a pair of module holders made out of G9 glued at each end for attachment to the precision holes on the substrate. Cooling is provided at the end(s) of the blade by contact with the actively CO2 - cooled ring(s). Each substrate is glued permanently to the rings so that the whole ring and substrate assembly with embedded cooling tubes could be constructed as a complete structure. Solid TPG (0.68mm thick) encapsulated with carbon-fiber facings (0.06mm thick). Upgrade Blade - identical blades are used in the inner and outer assemblies of all half disks. S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
The development of the CO2 cooling system for the pixel detector requires a substantial R&D program: Characterization of heat transfer. The pixel detector cooling uses miniature pipes laboratory measurements to characterize the process in the relevant domain, and improve the existing theoretical models accordingly. 2. Optimization of the on-detector cooling. the key to reduce the detector material The heat transfer from the silicon sensors to the structure, through the pipe walls into the coolant has to be maximized, while minimizing the amount of material and at the same time ensure reliable thermal joints with reproducible performance. The crucial aspects are the choice of the pipe material and size, pipe fittings and connection techniques, design of thermal joints and choice of thermally conductive materials. 3. System design and integration (i) design of the cooling station (ii) design of the control and monitoring system, choice of the instrumentation iii) design of the cooling channels, fittings prototypes of mechanical structures of both BPIX and FPIX have already been tested with CO2 cooling in realistic conditions, and extensive thermal modelling studies are underway. Although substantial optimization work is still to be done, the results collected so far indicate that suitable performance can be achieved with miniature pipes and lightweight contacts. System design and integration studies will be a main focus for the coming 1-2 years. A fullscale system has been built in the CERN CryoLab S. Coelli - INFN MILANO

ALICE Upgrade The total power dissipated for the whole new ITS detector is about 15 kW. The cooling system has to remove this heat from the detector barrels. The design of the cooling system is driven by several requirements related to the material budget, long-term stability, erosion resistance, chemical compatibility, minimal temperature gradients and cooling duct temperature above the dew point. The detector will be operated around room temperature S. Coelli - INFN MILANO
ALICE Upgrade Stave will have a cooling duct embedded in a carbon structure which will remove the dissipated heat by a leakless (below atmospheric pressure) de-mineralized water ow.
