9 Sub System ZDC BBC EMCal RICH HBD (Hadron Blind Detector) ACC TOF TEC
Mu ID Mu Tracker 2018/12/31

10 HBD( Hadron Blind Detector)
relativistic electrons 多くの粒子がe+e- decay channelsを持っている。 Dalitz decay electronは2memp からなるはっきりとした質量をつくる。 Photon conversionはさらに鋭いピークを2me付近につくる。 pads φ π Dalitz と Photon conversionはどちらも小さなopening angleである。 Major problem: 多くの組み合わされたbackground、つまりγ-conversions とπ0 Dalitz decays がある中から、 electron　ID、そしてmomentum directionの決定を行う。 そのためにbackgroundを減らす必要がある。 2018/12/31

11 Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM)
The original idea by F.Sauli (mid 90s) US Patent 6,011,265 Traditionally CHARGED PARTICLE detectors (not photons) 150μ 80μ Two copper layers separated by insulating film with regular pitch of holes HV creates very strong field such that the avalanche develops inside the holes Just add the photocathode By the way: no photon feedback onto photocathode 2018/12/31 11 Jason Kamin Jan 23rd, 2007

12 HBD( How to work) Start with a GEM Put a photocathode (CsI) on top HV
photoelectron from Cherenkov light avalanches in the high density E-field ~150 μm Use more GEMs for larger signal Pick up the signal on pads What about ionizing particles (hadrons)? We need a mesh with a reverse voltage on it to blow electrons away!!! We have a detector sensitive to UV and blind to ionizing particles! 2018/12/31 12 Jason Kamin Jan 23rd, 2007

13 BBC Calibration(1) FEM Calibration
・ QScan : Check ADC using internal charge injecter ・ TScan : Check TDC using internal charge injecter 2018/12/31

14 BBC Calibration(2) Online Calibration ・ Check ADC and TDC distridution
・ Get MIP peak, TDC overflow, Slewing correlation, Timing offset, Z-Vertex offset -> Calibration constant 2018/12/31

15 BBC Problems (Laser) Lack of laser hitrate
This problem occurred because of changing new flash lump. 2018/12/31

16 BBC Problems (QScan) In QScan, slope of ch[6],ch[76],ch[126] is unstable. Daughter card had problem. 2018/12/31

17 BBC Problems (QScan) BBC experts changed Daughter card in access day.
before after replacement 2018/12/31

18 BBC Problems (QScan) We investigated temperature vs QScan’s slope.
