15. 15 Tracking - Resolutions Requirements: Close to the beam => edgeless detectors High lumi operation => very radiation hard Beam en.smearing σ E = 0.77 GeV Few μm precision, 1μrad precision Beam spot smearing σ x,y = 10 μm Suppress pile-up => add fast timing det. Detector angular resolution = 1, 2 μrad ATLAS, 1.5 mm (220) and 5 mm (420) from beam [P.Bussey, FP420]

16. 16 Candidates for tracking detectors Baseline: “3D” Pixels detectors (S. Parker) Under development for FP420 Stanford, VTT, Sintef Backup: Silicon strips: Experienced technology Canberra, Hamamatsu Jean-François Genat, RP220 meeting, Oct 17-19th 2007 Krakow, Poland Readout chip (ATLAS) 50  m strips (Canberra) Semi-3D detector (VTT, Finland) 3D (Stanford)

Further tests need a full detector wire-bonded and biased. Breakdown voltage 110-130 V OK Jean-François Genat, RP220 meeting, Oct 17-19th 2007 Krakow, Poland

18. 18 Test stand at Saclay Jean-François Genat, RP220 meeting, Oct 17-19th 2007 Krakow, Poland - CERN provided a test stand with hybrids equipped with regular ABCDs chips used for the ATLAS SCT thanks to Shaun Roe and Francis Anghinolfi VME readout module driven by a PC installed at Saclay - Follow up tests in November: - Test the ABCDs hybrids provided by CERN at Saclay Get ABCD pedestals - Wire bond detectors to hybrids at CERN Test bias current - Test detectors with laser and source at Saclay Get Signal/Noise

19. 19 Fast timing detectors Fast development on several fronts for several applications ! FP420 and RP220 need to reduce PILE-UP background heavily At least for H->bb: overlay of 3 events (2 SD + non-diffr. dijets) fakes signal perfectly and with prob. 10 10 x higher than signal. Can be reduced by applying strict central-matching-RP conditions + fast timing det. 10ps (2-3mm) resol. may separate different vertices Rejection of up to 40 FP420: UTA/ Alberta/ FNAL/ Louvain: first tests with Quartic det.

20. 20 Level 1 Trigger FP420: cannot be put directly into L1 – only in special runs with larger L1 latency available triggers: 2j, μ (L1 threshold for 2μ is 3 GeV), e, j+lepton - μ-triggers can save up to 20% of bb signal - WW signal saved by lepton triggers RP220: Can be put into L1: A BIG added value to FP420! Very similar trigger rates as for foreseen CMS-TOTEM L1 trigger: CMS-TOTEM L1 trigger STUDY RP220 L1 trigger study Total reduction: 10 (RP) x 2 (jet isol) x 2 (2 jets same hemisph as p) = 40 E T jet > 40 && RP220-1side [A.Pilkington, FP420] [A.Kupčo, RP220] [M.Grothe et al., CMS Note 2006-054]

26. 26 Design for RP220 Design for RP220 not yet fixed. Still need to consider: 1)Alignment and calibration: BPMs themselves should be quite precise (about 10 μm?). But we need physics processes to cross-check and also for the detector calibration. The price for that is high: 2 additional vertical RPs. 2) Fast timing detector: not enough space in the current RP (Totem) design because fast timing det. need large radiators to collect a good number of photons → put movable beam pipe behind RP 3) Size of 3D-Si sensors: what is the best size of sensors in the (x,y) -region of interest wrt yield? 4) L1 trigger: 3D-Si: standard pixel trigger is just YES/NO for the full detector, while we need to know which strip is hit at L1 to measure ξ or mass at L1 → needs to develop a new trigger card. Si-strips: needs to include trigger in ABCNext chip, unfortunately not first priority for CERN

28. 28 RP220 Timetable In addition to FP420 project, there is a strong complementary program to upgrade the 220 region with horizontal pots at ATLAS, which adds significant value to FP420 Aim is to submit proposal for a sub-detector upgrade this year for 420 and 220 upgrades If accepted by ATLAS (and/or CMS) this would lead to TDR from experiment to LHCC in early 2008 RP220 Roman Pots and baseline detectors designed to be ready in 2010 Collaboration between FP420 and RP220 getting more intensive. There was a common and fruitful meeting in Paris last September NEW COLLABORATORS WELCOME!
