6 Method: variation in position X,Y and Z of the absorber and sensor layersDeformations Z Z Z Deformed structure of the LumiCal was created by smearing in Monte Carlo X, Y and Z positions of the layers inside detector. They were selected randomly according to Gaussian distributions with average equal to the original positions and different dispersions original deformation in Z axis deformation in X i Y axes

7 Changes in Z position Original After change of the Z postions Z 1, Z id - the position of the first disc  Z id - the distance between discs in ideal detector = 0.59 cm Z R - random selected z-position Z R simulation: from the distorted type of Gaussian distribution (  : from 5 up to 45  m) Z Z 1 = Z 1 id  Z  Z id = Z n+1 id - Z n id Z Z n+1 = Z n +  Z id + Z R Z Z n+1 - Z n < The new layer positions - not allowed to cover the neighbouring disc

8 Changes in X, Y positions Original Deformed X n = X id + X R Y n = Y id + Y R X n, Y n - new discs positions X id, Y id - discs positions for ideal LumiCal X R, Y R - random selected X and Y positions MC simulation: X R, Y R were simulated according to Gaussian distribution with  which was changed from 5 up to 45  m in 5  m step X R, Y R simulation

10 Conclusions Monte Carlo simulated events for two crossing angles 0 and 20 mrad were used Monte Carlo simulated events for two crossing angles 0 and 20 mrad were used in estimation effect on luminosity measurements from in estimation effect on luminosity measurements from the uncertainties in LumiCal position measurements the uncertainties in LumiCal position measurements or from deformation its internal structure or from deformation its internal structure The shift of the detector up to ~ 100  m in longitudinal or transversal direction The shift of the detector up to ~ 100  m in longitudinal or transversal direction creates systematic effect on relative luminosity measurement on the level 10 creates systematic effect on relative luminosity measurement on the level The effect from deformation of the internal LumiCal structure is at least The effect from deformation of the internal LumiCal structure is at least one order smaller. one order smaller.
