3 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy The GLAST mission High energy Gamma Ray observatory 2 instruments: --Large Area Telescope (LAT) --Gamma Ray Burst Monitor (GBM) GBM: GBM: ~10 keV – 30 MeV LAT: LAT: ~20 MeV - >300 GeV  Observe γ ray sky (10 keV –300 GeV) All sky survay Pointed observations  Answer to important question in high energy astrophysics raised by results from EGRET  Lifetime 5 years (minimum) LAT assembly completed Environmental tests completed LAT is being integrated on spacecraft Tests will continue (termal, vibrational …) Launch end 2007

4 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy LAT science and performances AGN spectrum GRB emission time structure All sky survey with large field of vew (2.4 sr) Large energy range (20 MeV – 300 GeV) 30-100 GeV: unexplored energy window Small dead time ~ 25 μs

5 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy The Large Area Telescope (LAT) γ e+e+ e-e- ACD Thermal Blanket Calorimeter DAQ Electronics Tracker 4x4 Towers Array ACD (Aanti Coincidence Detector) : segmented plastic scintillator surrounding the 4x4 Traker Towers array Tracker: silicon microstrip 18 XY layers interleaved with W converters ~ 1.5 X 0 Calorimeter: 8 CsI(Tl) hodoscopic array layers ~ 8.5 X 0

6 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Space Environment Limitations and Requirements Total mass budget: 3000 Kg Total power budget 650 W –Tracker 160 W Temperature Range +45  -15 °C Vibrations at Launch No consumables Limited Data Flow (8-10 min contact/day @ 40 Mbps ) –Trigger rate: ~ 4 kHz –Downlink rate: ~ 370 Hz –Photon rate : few Hz

7 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Tracker Design Overview 16 tower modules 37  37cm 2 active cross section/layer 83m 2 of Si 11500 SSD, ~ 1M channels strip pitch: 228 μm 18 xy layers per tower –19 “tray” structures 12 with 3% X 0 W on top 4 with 18% X 0 W on bottom 3 with no converter foils –every tray is rotated by 90° wrt the previous one: W foils followed by x,y plane of detectors 2mm gap between x and y oriented detectors Trays stack and align at their corners Electronics on sides of trays: –Minimize gap between towers x x x x y y y y xy plane Tkr Tower Tray

8 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Tracker Readout Electronics  24 GLAST Tracker Fornt End (GTFE) chips mounted on Multi-Chip Module (MCM) on tray side  9 GLAST Tracker Readout Controllers (GTRC) per cable  Time Over Threshold (TOT) from layer-OR trigger signal Any single component (GTFE, GTRC, cable) can fail without affecting the other

9 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Tracker Highlights 10368 Wafers Yeld ~ 99.5% MCM MCM-SSD right-angle interconenction Kapton cables  4 layers flexible circuit  each cable in the tower module is different  84-98 cm long Each Layer passed several Electrical Tests Each Tray passed thermal-cycle tests Each Tower passed  vibrational tests  thermal vacuum tests Difficult work but now the Tracker is complete and working well

10 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Why Beamtest ? LAT performances have been studied with MC (GEANT4) and cosmic muons The whole energy, angle, position phase space will be available only in orbit Need to verify MC with real data Sample critical/typical points for detector performances and background rejection with particle Beam Check basic quantities (energy deposit, hit multiplicities) Check high level quantities (energy and direction reconstruction) Eventually tune MC

11 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Photons: what to check ? γ Energy Spectrum γ Angular Distribution wrt LAT axis Most of γ will cross 2 Towers Most of γ will have very low Energy Energy and Direction reconstruction performances scale with energy Check absolute values and scaling especially in the low energy region Direction reconstruction performances scales with angle Check absolute values and scaling especially in the most probable region Check two towers effects Check passive material description

12 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Background: what to check ? Photons Photons coming backword and hitting the CAL can mimic a track Protons ACD can miss some p Check efficiency Protons hitting the CAL side can mimic a track Check hadron reactions Check efficiencies MMS e+ γ γ Positrons e+ can annihilate in MicroMeteorite Shild Check efficiency

13 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy Check BackSplash High energy γ /electrons produce backsplash from calorimeter Can affect direction reconstruction High multiplicity can saturate cables FIFO Check hit multiplicity Most backsplash hits in bottom layers Direction informations in firsts track hits Study optimal FIFO configurations (Max allowed hits/layer) and dead time Tracker Towers readout by flex cables Max read hits (strips) / Cable = 128 Layer read from bottom to top (FIFO) Flex Cable

14 S. Germani - INFN Perugia September 25-29 2006 Perugia, Italy The Calibration Unit The LAT could not be tested on beam (environmental tests at NRL during beam time) anyway: Use Calibration Unit (2 complete Towers + 2 CAL) To scan and test each single Tower for all configuartions is not feasible Most of of the events are contained in 2 towers Calibration Unit allows to test all the geometry related configurations Impact position and angle 2 Towers crossing The aim of the Beamtest is to check and eventually tune MC response
