MUG-TEST 3 Motivazioni SUSY SU(5) predictions Lepton Flavour Violation (LFV) induced by finite slepton mixing through radiative corrections The mixing could be large due to the top-quark mass in SU(5) (larger by ~30 order of magnitudes than SM predictions) SO(10) predicts even larger BR J.Hisano et al.,Phys. Lett. B391 (1997) 341 R. Barbieri et al.,Nucl. Phys. B445(1995) 215  clear evidence for physics beyond the SM Our goal Analisi combinate degli esperimenti a LEP favoriscono

MUG-TEST 19 Timing counter

MUG-TEST 20 TC prototype results (although depend on the number of photoelectrons) from rms of (T3-T4)/2 distribution almost independent of muon passage along the counter (T1 - T2)/2 independent of reference gives similar results Weighted average We obtain

MUG-TEST 21 Timing MC studies Timing efficiency   60 ps for  E  2 MeV mainly dominated by photoelectron statistics   E > 5 MeV energy deposit on adjacent  -cells to achieve 100 ps FWHM resolution Trigger efficiency Use of hit z-cells and  -cells to determine initial positron direction  correlation with max. charge PMT in LiXe calorimeter (providing  direction) Yet to be studied: use of Q1/Q2 (instead of z-cells layer) to determine the z-position e+ use of more than 2 PMT’s need to know T(E,x,z)

MUG-TEST 22 Efficiencies Timing efficiency evaluated for different configurations: 1cm thick inner layer, 2 cm thick outer layer  (  E>5 MeV) = 85 % (mainly due to e+ interaction in the inner layer)  (trigger) = 96.8 % 0.5 cm thick inner layer, same thickness for outer  (  E>5 MeV) = 93.6 %  (trigger) = 97.4 % reversed layers  (  E>5 MeV) = 97.5 %  (trigger) = 75.4 % ( many events with no hit on z-sliced layer) unavailable provided one uses Q1/Q2 to determine z

MUG-TEST 29 Trigger Use of “on-line” reconstruction of energy, direction for both positron and photon Photon PMT charge sum  energy deposit Use of 100 MHz FADC max. charge PMT  direction Positron DCs provide information about positron momentum (constant bending radius) and direction (correlation of chamber plane index with  ) but slower device (~200 ns drift)  information available only at high-level trigger Timing Counters instead: provide fast (~10 ns) information about timing and direction (correlation of scintillator slices with positron direction) work as a filter (e.g. no hit on TC) for Michel positrons with p<40 MeV/c or out of the acceptance angular range ( )

MUG-TEST 30 1st level trigger Coincidence of an event in Xe with a TC hit within ΔT = 10 ns Since then 2nd level trigger Based on an association of γ direction with TC-rods hit by the positron (hard to improve due to target size) 3rd level trigger Use of outer hit DC wires to determine the radius of the turning point By requiring Trigger levels

MUG-TEST 31 Trigger implementation Use of 100 MHz, 10-bit resolution Flash-ADC for PMT charge sampling Data processed by FPGA so as to: subtract the pedestals equalize the PMT gain compute the Q-sum find the PMT with max charge compute the min. arrival time store waveforms in FIFO Two types of VME board 1-Analog-to-Digital 6U 2-Digital 9U arranged in a layer tree structure 1 board 2 VME 6U 1 VME 9U Type2 LXe inner face (312 PMT) boards 20 x 48 Type Type2 2 boards boards 10 x 48 Type LXe lateral faces (488 PMT: 4 to 1 fan- in) Type2 1 board boards 12 x 48 Type Timing counters (160 PMT) Type2 2 boards 2 x 48 4 x 48 2 x 48
