2 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/052 The International Linear Collider (ILC) 2007 - LHC ready to explore new physics and to search for Higgs, supersymmetry, hidden new dimensions, etc. ILC critical to understanding LHC discoveries –Detailed study of Higgs and SUSY particles –Precision measurements Higgs e + e - -> Z  H  -> l  l  X ∆M top ≈ 100 MeV, ∆  top ≈ 2% ∆M Z & ∆M W ≈ 5 MeV (from 30 MeV) ∆(sin 2 ) ≈ 10 -5 (from 2·10 -4 ) Global Design Effort (GDE) timeline: –2006 accelerator CDR –2008 accelerator TDR, experimental collaborations, detector CDRs –2009 - Detector TDRs, construction –2015 - Physics at ILC ILC tracker resolution ∆(1/p T ) ~ 5 x10 -5 (GeV/c) -1 (10 times better than at LEP!)

3 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/053 ILC tracker requirements Small cross sections  100 fb, low rates, no fast trigger. Higgs measurements & SUSY searches require: –High granularity continuous tracking for good pattern recognition. –Good energy flow measurement in tight high multiplicity jets. –Excellent primary and secondary b, c,  decay vertex reconstruction. TPC is an ideal tracker for ILC. –Momentum resolution goal  (1/p T ) ~ 5.10 -5 (GeV -1 ) achievable with vertex + Si inner tracker + TPC with ∆(1/p T ) ~ 2 x 10 -4 (GeV -1 ) ILC TPC tracker goals: –200 track points with  (r,  ) = 100  m,  (r, z) = 500  m –2 track resolution < 2mm in (r,  ) and < 5 mm in (r, z) –dE/dx resolution < 5%

6 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/056 ExB cancels track angle effect TPC wire/pad readout 100 µm Average Aleph resolution ~ 150 µm About 100 µm best for all drift distances Limit from diffusion  (10 cm drift) ~ 20 µm;  (2 m drift) ~ 90 µm Conventional TPCs never achieve their potential! Example:Systematic effects in Aleph TPC at LEP

7 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/057 Transverse diffusion sets the ultimate limit on TPC resolution. ILC TPC resolution goals close to the diffusion limit. Wire/pad TPC resolution inherently limited by ExB & track angle systematic effects. A TPC read out with a MPGD endcap could meet the ILC resolution challenge if the precision of pad charge centroid determination could be improved. What is the best achievable resolution with conventional techniques? Micro Pattern Gas Detector (MPGD) Readout for ILC TPC

8 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/058 Micro Pattern Gas Detectors (MPGD) Unlike wires, MPGDs have no preferred direction - negligible ExB effect MPGDs achieve excellent  40 µm resolution with 200 µm wide pads. Conventional wire readout TPCs use cathode pads of width ~ a few mm. Proposed ILC TPC channel count ~ 1.5x10 6 with 2 mm wide pads. Narrower pads would lead to increased detector cost & complexity. The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM)Micromegas ~ 50  m ~ mm Drift region

11 Point resolution, Micromegas Saclay/Orsay/Berkeley --Diffusion measurements   (r,  ) < 100  m possible --At moment only achieved for short drift (intrinsic  ) for gain~5000 (350V mesh), noise~1000 e --ongoing effort… B = 1T 1x10mm^2 pads mm^2, B = 1T Many groups are working on MPGD TPC R&D. Prototype results from “Some Results -Summer 2005” (Ron Settles)

12 Prototype results contd. Point resolution GEM DESY group.  (r,  ) measured for GEMs with 2x6mm 2 pads 30cm B=4T Gas:P5 Victoria group has achieved ~ 100 µm resolution for short drift distances with narrower 1.2x7mm 2 pads.

13 Prototype Results - cont. Point resolution, GEM --Example of  (r,  ) measured at Aachen GEMs with 2x6mm 2 pads by comparing track position with a Si hodoscope. --In general (also for Micromegas) the resolution is not as good as expected from diffusion. PRELIMINARY!

14 Narrower pads leading to increased complexity & a larger number of readout channels. Disperse track charge after gas gain over a larger area to improve pad centroid with wide pads. For the GEM, large transverse diffusion in the high E- field field in transfer and induction gaps provides a natural mechanism to disperse the cluster charge. Measurements with prototype GEM-TPCs have shown that this increased diffusion is insufficient in a high B field for the ILC-TPC to achieve the resolution target with ~ 2 mm pads. Explore other concepts to disperse the charge Ideas to improve the MPGD TPC resolution

22 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0522 Charge dispersion signal for a GEM Simulation versus measurement (2 mm x 6 mm pads) Collimated ~ 50  m 4.5 keV x-ray spot on pad centre. Primary signal: Fast large amplitude main pulse on charge collecting pad. Simulated primary pulse is normalized to the data. Difference = induced signal (not included in simulation) studied previously: MPGD '99 (Orsay), LCWS '00 Secondary signal: The dispersion pulse on the neighboring pad is slower & smaller. Simulated secondary pulse normalization is the same as for the primary. Detailed simulation includes effects of, longitudinal & transverse diffusion, gas gain, detector pulse formation, charge dispersion & preamplifier rise and fall time effects. For tracks, include effects of unequal primary clusters.

The GEM-TPC resolution was first measured with conventional direct charge TPC readout. The resolution was next measured with a charge dispersion resistive anode readout with a double-GEM & with a Micromegas endcap. Carleton cosmic ray test MPGD-TPC

29 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0529 Simulation - GEM TPC cosmic event with charge dispersion (track Z drift distance ~ 67 mm, Ar/CO 2 90/10 gas) Detailed model simulation including longitudinal & transverse diffusion, gas gain, detector pulse formation, charge dispersion & preamp rise & fall time effects. Centre pad amplitude used for normalization - no other free parameters. 2x6 mm 2 pads Simulation Data

30 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0530 The pad response function (PRF) The PRF is a measure of signal size as a function of track position relative to the pad. For charge dispersion non charge collecting pads have signals in contrast to conventional direct charge readout. Unusual highly variable charge dispersion pulse shape; both the rise time & pulse amplitude depend on track position. We use pulse shape information to optimize the PRF. The PRF can, in principle, be determined from simulation. However, system RC nonuniformities & geometrical effects introduce bias in absolute position determination. The position bias can be corrected by calibration. PRF and bias determined empirically using a subset of data which was used for calibration. The remaining data was used for resolution studies.

31 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0531 GEM & Micromegas PRFs for TPC track Ar:CO 2 (90:10) 2x6 mm 2 pads GEM PRFsMicromegas PRFs Micromegas PRF is narrower due to the use of higher resistivity anode & smaller diffusion after avalanche gain The pad response function maximum for longer drift distances is lower due to Z dependent normalization.

32 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0532 a 2 a 4 b 2 & b 4 can be written down in terms of  and  & two scale parameters a & b. PRFs with the GEM & the Micromegas readout The PRFs are not Gaussian. The PRF depends on track position relative to the pad. PRF = PRF(x,z) PRF can be characterized by its FWHM  (z) & base width  (z). PRFs determined from the data have been fitted to a functional form consisting of a ratio of two symmetric 4th order polynomials.

34 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0534 Bias corrections with GEM & with Micromegas GEM Micromegas 2 mm pads Initial bias Remaining bias after correction Initial bias Remaining bias after correction

35 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0535 What is the diffusion limit of resolution for a gaseous TPC?  0 includes noise & systematic effects. C d = diffusion constant; z = drift distance. Resolution depends on electron statistics. Electron number N fluctuates from event to event. N eff  the average number of electrons = 1/ the inverse of average of 1/N Gain fluctuations also affect N eff

36 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0536 Simulation for the effective number of electrons for resolution 2 mm x 6 mm pads - Ar/CO 2 90/10. dE/dx in Argon Statistics of primary ionization & cluster size distribution. dE/dx dependence on momentum. Account for track angle & detector acceptance effects. Use simulation to scale measured pulse heights to electron number. N eff = 1/ determined from pulse height distribution. N eff ≈ 38.9  10% (N average = 57) Cosmic ray momentum spectrum Total Ionization Measured pad pulse height distribution Mostly muons at sea level

37 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0537 Measured TPC transverse resolution for Ar:CO 2 (90:10) R.K.Carnegie et.al., NIM A538 (2005) 372 R.K.Carnegie et.al., to be published [N eff = 38.9] Unpublished Compared to conventional readout, resistive readout gives better resolution for the GEM and the Micromegas readout. The z dependence follows the expectations from transverse diffusion & electron statistics.

38 M. DixitIPNS KEK 14/10/0538 Summary TPC with MPGD readout is a very well suited technology for the ILC. Traditional readout has difficulty achieving TPC resolution goal, unless narrower pads are used. With charge dispersion, the cluster charge can be dispersed in a controlled way such that relatively wide pads can be used without sacrificing resolution. With such a readout system, it may be feasible to achieve ILC TPC resolution goal with relatively wide pads both for the GEM and the Micromegas readout. With R&D, ILC TPC resolution goals appear within reach. Beam test at KEK (next week) important step in developing the MPGD readout for the ILC TPC.
