Notes:

  • This talk also contains the value of the disk inner and outer radius (rmin and rmax in table). Note the following point. The disks are currently implemented in a way that does not allow to offset the inner opening. The inner opening is in the center of the disk. When the beam pipe fans out, this means that the inner opening of the disk is not symmetric around the beam pipe and it larger than "radius of beam pipe + 5 mm" (remember 5 mm clearance is needed for bake out). This is explained graphically in these slides: https://cernbox.cern.ch/s/MghHdVsOdMlNEWZ
  • The disk configuration in the electron going direction is compatible with the smaller envelop available in the case where the pfRICH is used. If the mRICH is used, the envelop on the electron side could be the same as on the positive side. However in this simulation campaign, one silicon configuration is used and it is the one with the asymmetric design of the forward and backward disk configurations.


MPGD tracking geometry:

  • Detailed MPGD geometry parameters are summarized in Matt Posik's talk here:

https://indico.bnl.gov/event/17349/contributions/70681/attachments/44412/74949/ePIC-MPGD-TrackingMeeting-Nov102022.pdf

There are in general two MPGD geometries:

  1. MPGD Barrel (https://github.com/eic/epic/blob/main/compact/tracking/mpgd_dirc.xml). This layer is positioned at radius r = 55 cm, and has a length of 230 cm. Its material budget is about 0.5% X/X0 and has a spatial resolution of 150 um.
  2. MPGD DIRC (https://github.com/eic/epic/blob/main/compact/tracking/mpgd_dirc.xml). This is the layer behind the DIRC at r = 73 cm and has a length of 342 cm covering the range from z = -197 cm to z = 145 cm (note it is not symmetric relative to z = 0). Its material budget is ~2% X/X0 and has a spatial resolution of 150 um.

The two detector configurations that are being used in this simulation campaign are designated Arches and Bryce canyon.

  1. Arches contains the MPGD Barrel and MPGD DIRC geometries.
  1. Bryce Canyon contains MPGD Barrel geometry


AC-LGAD ToF geometry:

  • The AC-LGAD ToF consists the hadron endcap plane and barrel plane. The geometry parameters of the AC-LGAD ToF are summarized in Nicolas Schmidt's talk here:

https://indico.bnl.gov/event/17349/contributions/70681/attachments/44412/74948/2022_11_TOF_Status.pdf


ToF Barrel geometry (epic/compact/tracking/tof barrel.xml):

  r = 64.6 cm, zmin = -120 cm, zmax = 120 cm, hit resolution: 30x3000 micron (0.01x1cm strips), ~1% X/X0 

ToF Hadron Endcap geometry (epic/compact/tracking/tof barrel.xml):

  z = 192 cm, rmin = 8.5 cm, rmax = 67 cm, xoffset = -2.75 cm, hit resolution: 30x30 micron (100x100 micron pixels), ~7% X/X0

2022 August 25 configuration for simulations

  • Barrel
 Layer 1: r = 36 mm, l = 270 mm, 0.05% X/X0
 Layer 2: r = 48 mm, l = 270 mm, 0.05% X/X0
 Layer 3: r = 120 mm, l = 270 mm, 0.05% X/X0
 Layer 4: r = 270 mm, l = 540 mm, 0.25% X/X0
 Layer 5: r = 420 mm, l = 840 mm, 0.55% X/X0
 support barrel: r=135mm, l=270mm, 100um carbon fiber, X/X0 = 0.036%
 support cone angle: 45 degrees
  • Disks
 |z| = 250, 450, 700, 1000, 1350 mm
 r_out = 43 0mm at |z|>430mm,~230mm at|z|=250mm
 r_in ~ 5 mm away from beam pipe
 X/X0 ~ 0.24% per disk

Notes on disks

  • z = 1350 mm would put the last disk right against the mRICH in the e- direction; TBC pending checks with project engineers/up-to-date CAD drawing.
  • 5th disk in FWD/BWD direction needs r_out = 59/53 cm to fit into the current support design.
  • r_in under optimisation based on disk tiling study, hence no precise number is given.

Technology information

    • MAPS layer/plane: 10^-7 event/pixel, ongoing R&D could further reduce the noise rate.
    • MPGD layer/plane: will provide the first order estimated values.
    • AC-LGAD layer/plane: 3x10^-7 event/pixel with the 3 sigma threshold cut.
