CMS HF PMT SYSTEM By Y. ONEL U. of Iowa, Iowa City, IA CMS HCAL at Fermilab Feb 6-8, 2003
CMS-HF PMT Test and Quality Control System U. Akgun 1, A.S. Ayan 1, F. Duru 1, E. Gulmez 2, M. Miller 1, J. Olson 1 Y. Onel 1, I. Schmidt 1 with Quarknet Group – P. Bruecken, C. Like, R. Newland 1 University of Iowa, Iowa City, USA 2 Bogazici University, Istanbul, Turkey Abstract We have measured the specifications proposed by the CMS-HCAL committee on the candidate phototubes from the three major manufacturers; Hamamatsu, EMI and Photonis. In this report, we present the results from those measurements and we outline the future measurements for the test and the quality control as well as the design of the new University of Iowa PMT test station facility.
Tasks of the Test System For one tube in every batch: Double-pulse linearity, Gain vs HV for each batch Single photoelectron spectrum X-Y scan (spatial uniformity) Lifetime For each tube: Pulse width Pulse rise time Transit time Transit time spread Anode dark current Relative gain coupled with cathode sensitivity, Pulse linearity Quality control decision on each tube.
