HV PSS for HF I. Vankov ET 2004, Sozopol, Sept VERY FORWARD HADRON CALORIMETER (HF) Copper Block Cherenkov Detectors – Embedded Quartz Fibers 1728 Photomultiplyers (PMTs) Type Hamamatsu R7525 (8 stages: 7 dynodes + anode)

PROBLEMS CLASSIC SOLUTION: INDIVIDUAL RESISTOR DIVIDERS – GENERATE ALL PMT VOLTAGES, BUT: 1. NEED 1728 HIGH VOLTAGE CHANNELS and m long HV CABLES - VERY EXPENSIVE 2. LARGE SPACE FOR THE 1728 DIVIDERS 3. GREAT POWER LOSSES IN THE DIVIDERS – PRODUCE MUCH HEAT HV PSS for HF I. Vankov ET 2004, Sozopol, Sept. 2004

HV PSS for HF SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION 72 READ OUT BOXES (ROBOXES) – 36 for HF1 and 36 for HF2 36 roboxes – divided to 4 group of 9 corresponding to the four HF quadrants IN EACH ROBOX – 3 PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS (PCBs) AT EACH PCB – 8 PMTs (with similar parameters)

HV PSS for HF I. Vankov ET 2004, Sozopol, Sept CONCLUSIONS 1.HV SYSTEM NEW SOLUTION: PMTs united in groups with similar parameters; Only first 6 dynodes supplied by resistor divider, D7 and D8 – from individual HV channels; 9 PCBs (72 PMTs) connected to each HV channel. 2. ACHIEVED RESULTS: Drastically decreasing of numbers of the long HV cables – 8 instead of 144; Decreasing of the power losses and heating Drastically decreasing of the expenses
