LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 4 H8: data sample 1 month of data taken with half “ATLAS like” gas fluxes Runs collected in the period 19/7-22/8 (35 days – 830 hours) have been analyzed: corresponding to 14 Runs of ~100 300 K events each. Trigger Hodoscope Runs taken under stable operating conditions: Gas: Ar (93%), CO 2 (7%) at 3 bar absolute Gas flow: 60 bar l/h BIL (~0.9 changes/day) 120 bar l/h BML (~1.2 changes/day) 180 bar l/h BOL (~1.0 changes/day) HV : 3080 V BML1 has the multilayer 2 with complete parallel gas distribution Software: ATHENA version 6.6.0 used to get the MDT digits PAW ntuples and ROOT trees available on lxcalc (and lxplus) /scratch/nfs/data/athen/rootdata

LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 5 H8: analysis method – max tdrift MDT spectra fitted with a double Fermi-Dirac function + constant to extract t0 and tmax Drift time computed for the six barrel chamber (12 multilayers): tdrift = tmax – t0 Typical statistical errors for runs with larger statistic (~300k evts): error on t0 < 0.2 ns error on tmax ~ 1 ns error on tdrift ~ 1 ns t0 = P 5 tmax = P 6 max tdrift

LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 6 Tubes grouped on the basis of their postion in the gas series (the gas flows from tube 1 to tube 3) H8: analysis method Temperature correction The drift times have been corrected to take into account changes in temperature T. The values of T were registered by temperature sensors tdrift/ T = -2.4 ns/K (ATLAS 2003-001) Temperature correction The drift times have been corrected to take into account changes in temperature T. The values of T were registered by temperature sensors tdrift/ T = -2.4 ns/K (ATLAS 2003-001) Time spectra from tubes in different layers have been added together -> statistical uncertainty reduced Only tubes with SIGNAL/NOISE > 15 have been considered 123 Statistical errors on tdrift much larger for chambers of type 1 with respect to chambers of type 2 because of the different beam illumination

LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 11 Experimental results Uniform response - in terms of drift time - from chamber to chamber within ±2÷3 ns Dependence of the drift time on the tube series position clearly visible for all the multilayers, with the exception of multilayer 2 of the BML1 (parallel system): average drift time differences from 2 to 3.2 ns Drift properties of the MDTs stable at the level of 0.04 ns/day on long term base and at the level of 1÷2 ns level on short term time base

LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 12 Explanation of the Serial Effect The “serial effect” can be explained with a water contamination due to the NORYL end-plug permeability: water vapor accumulates in the gas mixture during its flow along the series. The estimated equivalent water flux is: EHP(bar l/day)/EP 0.0002 for all the chambers. The value is in good agreement with an approx. estimate based on NORYL-GFN3 characteristics: WF(bar·l/day)/EP = 0.000227 The impact of the “serial effect” on the single tube space resolution is negligible The “serial effect” can be explained with a water contamination due to the NORYL end-plug permeability: water vapor accumulates in the gas mixture during its flow along the series.

Barone 21 Goal MC description matches the experimental data MC description matches the experimental data simulated spectra can give hints on chamber’s behavior, allowing to improve performance and to have a better understanding of the detector r(t) relations can be automatically derived one relation for each tube (instead of one per chamber) no need of any hypothesis “ad hoc” (the effects of -rays, cluster position fluctuations, …, are already taken into account by the simulation) simulated spectra can give hints on chamber’s behavior, allowing to improve performance and to have a better understanding of the detector r(t) relations can be automatically derived one relation for each tube (instead of one per chamber) no need of any hypothesis “ad hoc” (the effects of -rays, cluster position fluctuations, …, are already taken into account by the simulation) appropriate corrections will be extracted from the data by means of proper algorithms Y N Tune the MC simulation to obtain simulated spectra well reproducing the experimental data

LNF, 26 gennaio 2004M. Barone 22 Conclusions We performed a systematic study of the drift behavior of the 6 barrel MDT chambers, using the H8 2003 test beam data. The response of the chambers appears to be uniform and stable in time. We deeply investigated the “serial effect”, that can be quantitatively explained in terms of water contamination.

We are planning to tune the GARFIELD simulation in order to obtain simulated time spectra as similar as possible to real data. The following steps will depend on the success of the previous item. r(t) relations tracking We are planning to tune the GARFIELD simulation in order to obtain simulated time spectra as similar as possible to real data.
