  6. Silicon trackers and drift chambers • Central tracker: • single-sided Si strips • 150 mm pitch • barrel: 4 x 2, graded 3o stereo • fwd: 3 x 2, +/- 12o stereo • DC’s: same concept • as present chambers • 6 sectors, 3 regions • 2 super-layers/region • +/- 6o stereo • regions at ~ 2, 3, 4 m. • 112 wires/layer (24192) • 250 mm resolution CLAS12 Detector Review

  7. BST & FVT Assembly • Silicon vertex tracker reviewed on April 2: • design meets physics requirements • design is technically feasible • recommend we do the following: • develop alignment specifications • develop an operational plan • develop a grounding scheme • no further discussion of Si tracker in this review; unless requested CLAS12 Detector Review

  8. Central vertex tracking • Central or “barrel” vertex detector (BVT) • mixed: inner - Silicon, outer – Micromegas • Silicon: • better position resolution • but, more multiple scattering • and, very small stereo angle • all-Si design good for dp/p, df; bad for dq, dz CLAS12 Detector Review

  11. Silicon + Micromegas ? • simulations show mixed solution best, but • can Micromegas work with a cylindrical geometry? • can Micromegas work in a high, transverse B-field ? • Review the technology CLAS12 Detector Review

  12. Review of Micromegas Tracking Detectors for CLAS12 – May 7, 2009 • Reviewers: Madhu Dixit, Mac Mestayer • Presentations covered the following topics: • detector overview: layers, strip pitch, segmentation for central & forward regions • fabrication overview: principles and prototype testing of “bulk” technology • detector simulation: GARFIELD results on drift, diffusion, gain • tracking simulation: particle backgrounds, tracking efficiency and resolution • acceptance and quality assurance: methods to validate component performance • prototype testing: measurements of position resolution, Lorentz angle, gain times transmission and tracking efficiency for minimum-ionizing tracks; including tests of curved detectors and tests in magnetic fields • electronics: overview of requirements for charge and time measurements; options for an integrated system: amplification/discrimination/digitization/ readout. • Impressive new pioneering work on curved Micromegas technology and operation in transverse magnetic fields

  13. Resolution of the charges: • The simulated performance for resolution, solid angle coverage and efficiency meet or exceed CLAS12 requirements. • The design is based upon existing technology, simulated at both the signal and track-finding level with key parameters verified by prototype tests. The simulations are consistent with the test results. • The conceptual plans for detector integration (including safety systems) are consistent with the overall CLAS12 detector layout. • The schedule and allocated manpower seem reasonable. • The group is competent; recognized world leaders in this technology. We are confident that the group can successfully design and build the proposed tracking detectors for CLAS12.

  14. Optimizing the BST design • what’s best mixture of Si. vs. MM? 2 X 3 ? • integrated vs. independent mech. structure • best combination E field/ drift gap? • stereo angle: • smaller than 90 deg.? • fewer ‘ghost’ hits, worse resolution • need flex-cable readout for “y” strips • mesh segmentation CLAS12 Detector Review

  15. Why do we need a forward vertex detector? • might find ‘stub’ tracks pointing to coils • might help with track-finding • vastly improves vertex information • improves other track parameters • better knowledge of Int(B X dl) CLAS12 Detector Review

  16. How will the FVT be used? • stand-alone tracker (no) • ‘seed’ for forward track (?) • vernier for dc-only track (yes) • need good background rejection • Requirements • Efficiency • prob. of >1 hit in ‘matching circle’ < 20% • Resolution • ~100 micron spatial resolution CLAS12 Detector Review

  17. Presentforwardtracker (DC, FST) • 6 independentsectors • 3 chambers (‘regions’) per sector • 2 six-layer superlayers (+/- 6 °) • plane tilted by 25° wrt the beam axis • acceptance: 5°40° DC Striplayout: • 3x2 layers • trapezoidal tiles • 12° stereo angle • acceptance: 5°35° FST Simulation & Reconstruction 10/30/2008 S.Procureur

  18. Torus magnetic field • ∫B∙dl ~ 3 T-m • highest field for forward tracks B (tesla) Scattering angle (degrees) CLAS12 Detector Review

  19. Match DC track to FST hit 98% of DC tracks extrapolate within +/- 1 cm. So, how many background hits in the ‘circle of confusion’? CLAS12 Detector Review

  20. Resolutionswith DC+FST (electronsat = 15°, nowfrom GEMC!): 20 times better 5 times better FST greatlyimproves the vertex resolution, ,  and p Simulation & Reconstruction 10/30/2008 S.Procureur

  21. DC+FST – resolutionwith protons (protons at  = 15°): 3-4 times better 8-10 times better Much better vertex resolution with FST (and  resolution at high p)

  22. Change FST to Micromegas? • Difficulties with FST • massive cooling structure in live area • no cooling in live area for Micromegas • dead area around each trapezoidal sensor • very small dead areas for Micromegas • hard to deal with high rate at small radius • Difficulties with Micromegas • parallel E and B-fields • very little charge spreading • charged track hits look like x-ray hits CLAS12 Detector Review

  23. Optimize FST parameters? • optimum stereo angle? - more choice • large angle gives better theta resolution • but, also gives more fake strip matches • mixed strip and pixel segmentation • want fewer strip crossings at small radius • ghost hits will appear at larger radius • can we cover the full azimuth? • what is the mesh segmentation? radial? CLAS12 Detector Review

  24. Key Decision Points • BST • how many layers of Si? …MM? • 2 – 3? 3 – 3? • unified or independent structure ? • internal accuracy vs. ease of installation/repair • layout details: stereo angle, mesh segmentation • study two-layer ‘punch-through’ background • sensor design: drift gap, field strength • reduce sparking rate CLAS12 Detector Review

  25. Key Decision Points • FST • Super-layer structure okay? • 3 units, each u – v • Background is very radially-dependent • want radial segmentation? • if so, how do we get signals out? • What is the optimum stereo angle? • balance dq vs. ghost hits • Can we cover the full azimuth? CLAS12 Detector Review

  26. CLAS12 Tracking: Summary • Si + MM provides excellent resolution in central region: better than Si or MM alone • FVT: better vertex than DC12 alone • Si disk design works well, but • MM design offers more readout flexibility • finer segmentation in ‘hot’ region • full azimuthal coverage • Micromegas has a major role in CLAS12 CLAS12 Detector Review
