  1. System Test of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer in the H8 Beam at the CERN SPS Erez Etzion (Tel Aviv University), Stefano Rosati (CERN) On behalf of the ATLAS H8 Muon Test Beam Community IEEE, 2004 Nuclear Science Symposium Rome, Italy, October 17 2004 ATLAS Muon test beam, E. Etzion, NSS 2004

  2. To trigger on MUON’s, one needs: Fast detectors to provide moderate Pt measurement and Bunch ID. Azimuthal coordinate measurement for both, MUON tracking and correct the main tracking detectors. To track MUON’s with a precision similar or better than the ID, one needs: Precision detectors, with deformations that can be followed Precise magnetic field mapping Alignment system over large distances, (relative position of chambers 30-40 microns.)

  3. Monitored Drift Tubes • The MDT chambers are made of two multilayers of pressurized aluminium drift tubes separated by 50 to 320mm high spacer and support structure . • A multilayer consist of three (or four) layers of dense-packed drift tubes. • Each tube determines the vertical distance between a charged particle track and the wire from the arrival time of the first ionization electron. • Tubes: -outer diameter :30mm, wall thickness: 0.4mm; Wire:50m(gold-plated) • -370.000 channels • Gas: -Ar:N2:CH4 -mixture (91:4:5) - pressure:3 bar(absolute) • HV:3.25 kV ATLAS Muon test beam, E. Etzion, NSS 2004

  4. Cathode Strip Chambers Multiwire proportional chambersdetermine muon position by interpolating the charge on 3 to 5 adjacent strips Precision (x-) strip pitch ~ 5mm Measure Q1, Q2, Q3… with 150:1 SNR to get sx ~ 60 mm. Second set of y-strips measure transverse coordinate to ~ 1 cm. Position accuracy unaffected by gas gain or drift time variations. Accurate intercalibration of adjacent channels essential. 32 four-layer chambers 2.0 < |h| < 2.7 |Z| ~ 7m, 1 < r < 2 m 4 gas gaps per chamber 31,000 channels Gas Ar:CO2:CF4 (30:50:20) High voltage :3.2 kV S = d = 2.54 mm W = 5.6 mm ATLAS Muon test beam, E. Etzion, NSS 2004

  5. Trigger Chambers • The first level muon trigger is derived from three trigger stations formed of Resistive Plate Chambers (very fast detectors with moderate rate capabilities) in the barrel and Thin Gap Chambers (moderately fast detectors with high rate capabilities) in the end-caps. • Each station is made of 2(or 3) planes of strips (or wires) with x or y readout . • The trigger is based on a coincidence between a strip (or wire) hit in the 1st station and a range of strips (or wires) in the 2nd or 3nd station. Typical momentum resolution is 20%.  • Low pt trigger: p>6GeV. • High pt trigger: p>20GeV. ATLAS Muon test beam, E. Etzion, NSS 2004

  6. Resistive Plate Chambers • Resistive Plate Chambers are gaseous, self-quenching parallel-plate detectors. • They are built from a pair of electrically transparent bakelite plates separated by small spacers. Signal are induced capacitively on external readout strips. - 420.000 channels in 596 double gap chambers. Gas: C2H2F4:isoC4H10 (97:3). HV : 9kV. Performance: -efficiency:>99%. -space-time resolution of 1cm1ns. -rate capability:~1kHz/cm². ATLAS Muon test beam, E. Etzion, NSS 2004
