The study of rare decays with neutrinos are becoming possible with very high integrated luminosity. h Marcello A. Giorgi

  26. BABAR is a VERY good detector: very difficult to improve it!! (On IFR barrel is the only major intervention needed) SVT is 98% efficient. No degradation due to irradiation has been observed so far What about Detector? SVT! SVT so far tested for rad hardness up to 4 Mrad (OK!) rad tests are going on. Partial SVT replacement is considered by 2005. Almost 50% of modules built as spare. Marcello A. Giorgi

Operates in limited streamer mode Parallel high resistivity plates (Bakelite  1011 -1012  cm ) Graphite ~100 k/ RPCs were filled 3 times with a mixture of 70% linseed oil and 30% n-pentane and dried by air for several days.

Giorgi

  29. 1999 • IFR complete May 99 • RPC efficiencies good • Warning signs • Some RPCs with > 100 mA were disconnected • With collision data • HV current limitations force reduction in # of RPCs • Average Efficiency low ~85% • Barrel is about 50% of total IFR coverage • Forward Endcap about 40% • Decision was taken in 2000 to upgrade the Forward Endcap with new RPC (higher QA/QC level) and with more absorber. Marcello A. Giorgi

  31. RPC problems (post mortem photo) Linseed oil – uncured oils move under HV and warm temperatures Graphite layer develops high resistance Internal debris and whiskers 5% of barrel has HV problems before New HV distribution ~50% of the barrel modules leak (many have normal efficiency) Front End electronics problems Excess oil Gas inlet Debris Opposite side Whiskers Marcello A. Giorgi

  32. IFR Barrel Upgrade Many RPCs die since 1999. Fraction effectively dead is now almost 40% Muon selectors losing efficiency A committee was setup in september 2002 to evaluate physics motivation for a IFR upgrade and technology. B.Ratcliff and C.Hearty were chairing the committee. After 3 months the committee Presented its recommendations to BaBar. Marcello A. Giorgi

  33. FINAL DOCUMENT May22,2003 Committee proposes to increase the thickness of the absorber and to replace the bakelite RPC with a more robust detector (Limited StreamerTube). INSTALLATION in 2004 & 2005 We have submitted a proposal and ask for your approval . Marcello A. Giorgi

  34. Summary Babar apparatus is generally very robust and can cope with high luminosity environment above 10 34 . Decision has been taken to upgrade the IFR Barrel with a different technology well established and robust (LST). Preliminary measurements of pure penguin processes for sin2b, measurements of Vub, B->DK, B->rp includingDalitz plot analysis. FUTURE – In2005 complete the installation of the IFR Barrel. Install the Spare modules of SVT, to replace the heavily irradiated modules on horizontal plane. Approach the precision measurement with 0.5/ab of integrated luminosity . Towards more than 1.0/ab explore possible openings for new physics. Study of CP asymmetries but also rare decays in b, c and tau sectors.
