Update on EM Calorimeters Calorimeter Group

SoLID Collaboration Meeting 2 SoLID EM Calorimeter Overview PVDIS forward angle SIDIS forward angle SIDIS large angle

Preshower (PS) – HERMES/LHCb style passive radiator + scintillator 2 X 0 Pb radiator + 2 cm scintillator tile w/ WLS readout Shower – COMPASS style Shashlyk calorimeter design Layer structure : 0.5 mm lead mm scintillator mm gap ( x 2); X 0 = 24cm, R M ~ 5 cm, 194 layers, 43cm total in depth SoLID Collaboration Meeting 3 Module last meeting

SoLID Collaboration Meeting 4 Updates since last meeting Additional Scintillator pad before Preshower for photon background rejection – for FAEC, being discussed for LAEC. Module shape changed from 10x10cm 2 square to 100cm 2 hexagon (6.25cm/side) due to support design. Now include background in the PID and other performance simulation today will report on SIDIS FAEC PID & Trigger; work ongoing for SIDIS LAEC and PVDIS. Updates on fiber connection and total EC cost estimate

Scintillator Pad (SPD): 0.5cm, reject high energy photons for electron trigger and hadron trigger at SIDIS forward angle. Less segmentation than PS, readout by WLS fiber → clear fiber → PMT. SoLID Collaboration Meeting 5 Photon-rejecting Scintillator Pad Scintillator Pad

Simulation

5mm Sc pad; Background dominated by low energy electrons: 20% from end cap of heavy GC, other from more upstream Have to be placed before MPRC (which has lots of material for conversion)! SoLID Collaboration Meeting 7 Thin scintillator pad to reject g 's at trigger level Electron  Low energy g - All R(cm) background rate per cm 2 in Sc:

SoLID Collaboration Meeting 8 Optimizing # Segment Low-E (1-2 GeV) Full E range (1-7 GeV) Overall photon rejection # segments Photon background dominated by 1-2 GeV. A 50ns coin window with corresponding calorimeter (Shower) assumed, will be better at FPGA level. Trigger require 5:1 rejection → 120 segments (could be 60 fans divided into 2 sections/fan) → 2MHz MIP rate/segment

Hexagon Calorimeter Simulation Projection along z Projection in sideview 3GeV electron shower on hexagon calorimeter grid; Support Al plates just added, not used in the results of following slides 4cm Al backplane 2cm PS scint 2cm Al frontplane 2X0 lead absorber

Expect go high w/ higher stat. SoLID Collaboration Meeting10 Revised with hexagon, no big diff. No background yet included (last meeting: square module 3x3 clustering 94% electron efficiency) p efficiency p(GeV) p(GeV) Preshower ID power drop significantly at this bin PID with Hexagons e efficiency

SoLID Collaboration Meeting Status of Background Simulation 3rd iteration of GEMC + CaloSIM background study SoLID Collaboration Meeting11

GEMC simulate background particles at the front surface of EC (Zhiwen); CaloSIM build calorimeter response; Combine above two and sum over all contributions (EM, DIS, pi0, pi+,pi-) stochastically within a 50ns coincidental window → background distribution at each trigger Embed background into signal simulation (high energy e, pi) and perform analysis (clustering, e/pi separation, etc.) SoLID Collaboration Meeting12 Calorimeter Background Simulation with GEMC + CaloSIM

3MHz MIP rate / 100cm 2 PS at inner radius; 10x lower at outer radius, could bundle multiple modules for PMT readout. SoLID Collaboration Meeting13 SIDIS FAEC Background Electron  Low energy g - All R (cm) 2X 0 of Pb in preshower absorbs all electrons, and reduces photon background from 1GHz/cm 2 to 10kHz/cm 2 (MIP signal), still, 1-100MeV photons dominate SIDIS FAEC background rate per cm 2

SoLID Collaboration Meeting14 Background Energy deposit in Scintillators E PS (MeV) E SH (MeV) E PS (MeV) E SH (MeV) E PS (MeV) Counts per 0.2MeV for 50k events bg vs. e - bg vs. p - bg vs. p - vs. e - less significant for shower significant in preshower

SoLID Collaboration Meeting15 SIDIS FAEC PID w/ background: No change in eff., reduced rejection at low-p - w/o background - w/ background p(GeV) Rejection reduced due to preshower pile up p efficiency e efficiency p(GeV)

Dose is not a problem for SIDIS configuration. Calorimeter design should stand 500krad, now expect 100krad – nice safety margin Still missing final PVDIS radiation dose, need final baffle w/o direct line of sight. SoLID Collaboration Meeting16 Radiation dose prediction now with background – remain stable SIDIS – He3– Large Angle Calorimeter SIDIS – He3– Forward Calorimeter

6+1 cluster contains ~96% of shower energy 17 Hexagon Calorimeter Trigger with Full Background

Do observe very high electron efficiency in simulation However, shower cut must be low to accept low-p electrons. This limits the rejection for high-p pions. See next slide. Possible solution: From DAQ group (Xin, Alex): use position dependent threshold, consider including preshower trigger Hexagon Calorimeter Electron Trigger Using 6+1 cluster energy

HEX1+6 Trigger > 0.95GeV HEX1+6 Trigger > 1.95GeV * Accepted * All p efficiency with cut p(GeV) E/p vs. p

Trigger cut: HEX1+6 trigger raw signal > 85% MIP (which is MIP – 2σ = 220MeV calibrated) Background passes this cut: rate ~20Mhz, dominated by photon. With a 5:1 photon suppression from scintillator, we get ~4MHz total trigger rate, which fit in the DAQ limit (PR ) Will join global DAQ study for final verification SoLID Collaboration Meeting20 Hexagon Calorimeter Pion Trigger Efficiency * Accepted * All p(GeV) E/p vs. p p efficiency with cut p(GeV)

SoLID Collaboration Meeting IHEP (not including fibers) for 1700 PS+SH Preshower: $112k-$120k Shower: $549k-$651k Structure+assembly: $255k-$340k IHEP total: ($1.22-$1.51)M + 24% overhead (2012 rate) = ($1.51-$1.87)M Fiber connectors+tubing (Leoni+other): ~$300k WLS+clear fibers(?): $703k (S.G.) - $2.47M (Kuraray) PMTs: $600x2x(~1900)=$2.28M Total from above (no contingency): ($4.8M-$5.2M) if using S.G.; $( )M if using Kuraray Labor? Shipping? Overhead? Contingency? Budget Update (no new Sc Pad yet)

SoLID Collaboration Meeting PID and Trigger study with background for SIDIS LAEC and PVDIS; Discussing overlapping module readout with DAQ group; Ongoing studies to reduce PMT cost: Multi-anode PMTs ($100/channel) to read out Preshower, but there are gain matching issues. Smaller PMTs to read out Preshower Need solid quotes for PMTs Plan

Hadronic shower which introduce a pion contamination, usually spread into larger area compared to EM shower A localized trigger, e.g. HEX1+6 trigger can significantly suppress the hadron response, while maintaining high eff. for electrons SoLID Collaboration Meeting29 Online: Trigger with background - Ratio of EM shower contained - Ratio of Pion shower contained

Choice of technology Shashlyk design was chosen based on advantage of radiation resistance + cost + ease of readout Features Pb/Scint ratio 1:3 (V) : chosen to reach <5%/√E energy resolution and ~100:1 pion rejection Scintillator thickness of 1.5mm: based past designs to balance sampling fineness VS lateral light transmission loss Total length of 20 X0 : contain 98% of shower and maximize pion-electron difference → MIP = 270 MeV (real) / 320 MeV (reconstructed) Lateral size of 10x10 cm2: max size allowed (to reduce $$) before position resolution significantly deteriorates (σ~1 cm after cor.) SoLID Collaboration Meeting30 Shower – quick review

Choice of technology HERMES/LHCb style VS full Shashlyk design, former is much easier to readout and high in radiation resistance Features Absorber of 2 X0 lead : Thinner – loose preshower rejection Thicker – loose shower resolution Scanned for 1.5, 2 and 3 X0; 2 X0 serve SoLID best Scintillator of 2 cm: MIP = 4 MeV, electron cut ~ 3 MIP SoLID Collaboration Meeting31 Preshower – quick review

Most photon focus on lower energy side (π0 decay) And lower energy photon produce less back scattering Therefore, do the study again with 1<Eγ<2 GeV SoLID Collaboration Meeting36 Backup - Simulated efficiency & rejection E dep for photons (MeV) Eγ (GeV) - Electron - Pion - Photon 1<Eγ<2 GeV ~1:20 γ-rej with cut below MIP peak Efficiency Cut on energy dep.

SoLID Collaboration Meeting Design Updates - Shape SoLID Collaboration Meeting37

Main reason from supporting structure and layout (see Paul Reimer’s talk) Physics feature should be similar to square shape and we will go through test and prototyping SoLID Collaboration Meeting38 Change from square to hexagon

SoLID Collaboration Meeting Design Updates - Layout Update SoLID Collaboration Meeting39

SIDIS and PVDIS FAEC (beam view) Both can share supporting structure, only need to move along beam direction to change configuration Supporting structure needs to be made from 100cm to 261cm 261cm 118cm 100cm 215cm PVDIS FAEC (green + blue)SIDIS LAEC (blue + red) SoLID Collaboration Meeting40

Ideas to minimize SIDIS LAEC Acceptance gap We want to cover full azimuthal angle and leave no gap between modules, so module can not be tilted and need to be along Z axis Prefer having short outer module so that the outer module area can cover more and inner module area can cover less Inner module need to be special shape to avoid blocking acceptance. One way to solve it is to have smaller 5x5cm (like COMPASS) module with various length 24o 14.7o inner module (150mm in radius) Outer module (500mm in radius) 17.5o Blue: LAEC acceptance angle Orange : angle between inner and outer 600mm 5x5x41cm 10x10x60cm module assume 600mm full module length 5x5x22cm Reviewed using G4 simulation next few pages SoLID Collaboration Meeting41

SIDIS LAEC (beam view) Type I (10x10cm) module in blue, type II (5x5cm long) module in green, type III (5x5cm short) module in purple. Supporting structure needs to be made from 75cm to 140cm 140cm 75cm SoLID Collaboration Meeting42

How much does inner modules help? Stand conf x10 cm2 modules x5 cm2 inner modules SoLID Collaboration Meeting46 Minor improvement LAEC catch 80% of shower Go freely to forward acceptance

SoLID Collaboration Meeting Design Updates - Shower cluster size cut SoLID Collaboration Meeting47

PID selection used 3-D cut on PS, e/p and momentum PS and e information come from sum signal in all non-zero modules Enemy here is very specific: almost fully absorved hadronic shower with high energy deposition SoLID Collaboration Meeting48 Previously showed pion rejection 94% electron eff.

SoLID Collaboration Meeting49 Shower area difference R spread (mm) Φ - spread (mm) R spread (mm) Φ - spread (mm) Notice the difference in color scale Electron showerHadronic shower (e/p>80%)

SoLID Collaboration Meeting50 Apply additional cut to limit max size of cluster around track projection Pion Limit cluster to be not larger than 3x3 modules around track projection to shower central depth Minor cut on EM shower but effectively removed hadronic showers of very high energy deposition Miss identified w/ >=94% electron eff. BIG high p end Flat phase space in PVDIS acceptance

SoLID Collaboration Meeting51 Can it be further improved? Pion Further limit cluster to be not larger than 2x2 modules around track projection to shower central depth Now loose ~5% of EM shower, but hadron shower cuts faster Miss identified Change cut and maintain >=94% electron eff. All hadron rej. better than 100:1 Flat phase space in PVDIS acceptance

SoLID Collaboration Meeting Design Updates - Radiation dose SoLID Collaboration Meeting52

LHCb/HERMES preshower, instead full Shashlyk preshower As shown before, the preshower scintillator receive most of the radiation, due to the low energy backgrounds This part radiation dose are now absorbed in 2X0 absorber, and we just see its EM tail now Especially, lead absorber effectively kill all low energy electron background New background distribution updated by Zhiwen SIDIS: With target collimator (suppress background by 4) First large angle simulation PVDIS: have option to remove direct photon sight (expected to be removed in the final baffle design) Dominating background, photons 1-10 MeV After preshower, which attenuate them a lot, they still penetrate ~10 layers in Shashlyk SoLID Collaboration Meeting53 What’s new

SoLID Collaboration Meeting54 PVDIS – current baffle (with direct γ) Layer #1 is 2cm preshower scint. γ dominate But attenuated quickly

SoLID Collaboration Meeting55 PVDIS – preview for a baffle w/o direct γ Layer #1 is 2cm preshower scint. γ get reduced by ~5 π- become important here

SoLID Collaboration Meeting56 SIDIS – Forward Layer #1 is 2cm preshower scint. γ dominate But attenuated quickly

SoLID Collaboration Meeting57 SIDIS – Large-Angle Layer #1 is 2cm preshower scint. γ dominate But attenuated quickly
