Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona Test beam Lhc The Cms all silicon tracker:  ~16k modules with ~75k read out chips(Apv).  128 strips/Apv, 4 or 6 Apvs per module. Inelastic hadronic interactions generate hips:  Up to 1000 mips signal in a 500  m Si detector.  Well known effect, whose rate is predicted by theory of energy deposition in silicon. Impact on Apv first observed in 120GeV  test beam at Cern in october 01. CMS tracker and hip: introduction

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona The hips and their effects on Apvs Inverter supply common to 128 strips:  In case of hip: sharing of the current ''consumed'' by few hit strips. Hip topology:  High signal shared between few strips.  Downward saturated baseline in the remaining strips of the apv.  Apv may remain saturated during ~ ns Strips 0 ns 25 ns 50 ns 75 ns 100 ns 125 ns 150 ns 175 ns 200 ns 225 ns 250 ns 275 ns 300 ns 325 ns 350 ns 375 ns 400 ns 425 ns 450 ns 475 ns 500 ns 525 ns 550 ns 575 ns 600 ns 625 ns 650 ns Pedestal Raw data(ADC) Digital zero

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona The PSI test beam Goal:estimate hip rate and induced Apv deadtime. 12 modules of different thicknesses and with different R inv. Two trigger modes:  (PM1+PM2)  1 data read out:hip rate estimate.  (PM1+PM2+!PM3) (enriched hips sample)  30 data read out spaced by 25ns: Apv recovery following. PM1 / PM2 300MeV pions(+/-) 20ns bunched beam PM1 / PM2 PM3

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona The PSI test beam (cont’d) For the first time, use of Xdaq framework:  Stable with high performances.  Efficient online monitoring. Quasi online analysis with Orca (C++ reconstruction framework). Outer barrel module Endcap module Beam profile S/N~20

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona CMN Pedestal Hip caracterisation Basic method:  Common Mode Noise:event by event Apv noise.  Because of limited digitizer dynamic: CMN > -CMN 0.  An Apv is said ''hipped'' if: CMN/CMN 0 < -0.8 A 2 nd method makes use of baseline flatness:  An Apv is said ''hipped'' if:Rms(Raw data)<1  Not considered here but leads to similar results. Warning:all numbers are preliminary. Hip CMN/CMN 0

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona Hip rate measurement Distribution normalised to number of good trigger,incident pions. Hip rate increases with:  Thickness.  Rinv (100  by default). Thickness:320  m Thickness:500  m Cut on CMN/CMN 0 Hip rate

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona Induced dead time estimate Principle:  Use of data sample with 30 consecutive readouts. Only 6 detectors considered (500  m thick).  Looks for a hipped Apv in a detector.  In following samples,looks for tracks intercepting hipped Apv.  Compute tracking efficiency  Normalise it by regular efficiency (i.e non hipped Apv).

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona Impact on physic Hip effect included in Cms full simulation:  2 input parameters:hip rate  and induced dead time .  Simple simulation:when a hip occured,all apv data are lost during   At high luminosity:1.6 (0.2) equivalent hadron per bunch crossings in first (last) layer of silicon.  Track angle with detector is taken into account.

Vertex 2002 Kailua-Kona Conclusion Due to the presence of an inverter supply common to 128 strips,the Apv chip can be disabled by heavy ionising particle. The occurrence of such events and the induced deadtime has been studied during a dedicated testbeam. Preliminary studies showed a very limited impact on physic performance.
