8 IT motivations and requirements Optimization for the physics coming from the interaction region: fine vertex reconstruction of K S and η decay products Detector requirements are: a) σ rφ ~ 200 µm; σ z ~ 500 µm point space resolution b) 5 khz/cm 2 rate capability c) Very low material budget < 1.5% X 0 (large MS effect on low-energy tracks) A GEM Detector allows to easily fulfill the requirements a) and b) With the technology of Fully Cylindrical GEM without internal mechanical supports an ultra-light detector can be built to fulfill the requirement c) 8

9 Cylindrical Triple-GEM Detector Read-out A Cylindrical Triple-GEM detector is obtained inserting one into the other the 5 cylindrical electrodes 2 mm 2 mm 2 mm 3 mm Anode GEM 3 GEM 2 GEM 1 Cathode Peculiar features of the C-GEM Ultra-light: anode/read-out and cathode are realized with the same raw material of the GEM foils, for a total material budget of ~3 X 0 for a Triple-GEM Dead zone free: inside the active area. All the fiberglass support mechanics is placed at the edges of the cylinder. The structural rigidity is obtained by stretching the detector 9

10 Small Size Prototype In 2006 we built the first C-GEM prototype using GEM foils from LHCb ( ~90mm, L ~250mm) Manual insertion of electrodes First application of the vacuum bag technique Final chamber in the support system, stretched at 700 g/cm and tested with X-rays in current mode up to gain of 10 4 without discharges 10

11 Full size L1 C-GEM prototype At the beginning of 2007 the construction of a Full Size Prototype has started The dimensions are similar to those of the IT Layer1: same diameter 300 mm Ø, but reduced 352 mm active length All electrodes obtained as a join of 3 foils (planar gluing) GEM size: 450x1000 mm 2 (single foil 450x333 mm 2 ) Anode readout with 1538 strips and 650 µm pitch (only rφ coordinate) FEE based on CARIOCA-GEM chip (amplificator/shaper/discriminator) Fiberglass support mechanics out of the active region (Permaglass) 11

12 C-GEM building procedure An epoxy glue (Araldite 2011) is distributed along one edge of the GEM (~3 mm) 3. The cylinder is enveloped in a vacuum bag. Vacuum is applied with a Venturi system, providing a uniform pressure of 1 kg/cm 2 2. The GEM foil is rolled on a Aluminum mould coated with a 400 µm thick machined Teflon film for a non-stick, low-friction surface 4. The result is a perfect cylindrical GEM With the same procedure Anode and Cathode are obtained

13 Cylindrical Cathode 3 foils joined together Permaglass annular flanges outside the active area support the detector 13

14 Cylindrical GEMs Foils are preliminary tested in a humidity controlled box 20 independent HV sectors ~50 cm 2 area 3 foils are planary glued with the vacuum tecnhique 3 mm overlap region 352 mm 960 mm 14

15 Anode read-out signal induction area with strips at 650 µm pitch FEE bonding flaps 500 µm pitch Detail of the read-out flaps to bond FEE 15

16 HV Resistors After the cylindrical gluing GEM are partially extracted from the mould HV 1MΩ resistors are soldered on the 60 GEM sectors 16

17 Electrode Extraction PVC exctraction ring cathode TEFLON coated mould 17

18 GEM1 Vertical Insertion System The Cathode is fixed to the bottom Al plate The other electrodes are fixed to the top plate and are pulled down slowly with a very precise linear bearing equipment cathode 18

19 glue is dispensed just before the foils are closed Detector Sealing Once the detector is fully assembled the insertion system can be rotated to easily seal both the sides detector is sealed with epoxy glue 19

20 HV Distribution boards Drift connection HV and read-out on the same side 6 connections for GEMs supplied by independent HV channels 3 boards are mounted, one for each independent GEM foil 20

21 Front-End Electronics FEE FEE for for Full Full Size Size Prototype based on on CARIOCA-GEM the 8 channel CARIOCA-GEM chip chip (LHCb Design Muon of a Motherboard System), uses bond 2 boards: to the detector with ZIF connectors carrying a Motherboard I/O signals bond and to controls the detector with ZIF connectors hosting regulators Design of and a Daughterboard I/O connectors hosting the chip a 16 channels Daughterboard hosting 2 CARIOCA chips FEE for final Inner Tracker based on dedicated 64 channels ASIC chip (GASTONE*) with serial read-out, uses 2 boards the same Motherboard for CARIOCA-GEM can be used a new 64 channels Daughterboard hosting the GASTONE chip * Collaboration with INFN-Bari 21

22 Prototype view with CARIOCA solution Each FEE slot hosts 4 CARIOCA-GEM chips, for 32 channels readout Output signal connections Front-End faraday-cage Kapton bonding flaps for input signal connection (ZIF connector) 22

23 Support and Stretching system The detector is finally mounted on a support system and longitudinally stretched with a tension of ~200 g/cm It can be easily and safely transported on a test-beam Load cell 6 gas inlets/outlets 23

24 Preliminary Test Results The CGEM has been flushed with Ar/CO2 (70/30) gas mixture at 286 cc/min and operated with the following parameters: Drift/Et1/Et2/I = 1.5/3/3/4 kv/cm G1/G2/G3 = 370/360/320 Estimated GAIN ~ 3000 Currents on each electrode < 10 na No discharges observed 25 october 2007 Next steps: Gas tightness test with gas humidity measurement Mechanical stretching test Mechanical strength test of the gluings Cosmic ray test Test beam at BTF-LNF with 500 MeV electrons in Dec07 24

25 Conclusions The Kloe detector is ready to take up the challenge given by the next 50 fb -1 delivered by the new DaΦne Hardware upgrades are foreseen to reduce systematics and open new physics channels A new Inner Tracker will be inserted to improve the vertex reconstruction for the physics near the IR (mainly K S and η) The IT is based on the innovative technology of fully Cylindrical GEM detectors (C-GEM) The Full size prototype, successfully built and preliminary tested, proves the feasibility of such a novel design The positive result opens the way for a new and competitive category of Ultra-light Micro-Pattern Gas Vertex Detectors 25

27 Roll-in Proposal The Kloe roll-in will be performed in 2 steps: Step 0 : take place at end of Roll-in of the present detector with the minimal upgrades for a reliable and efficient run Step 1: take place possibly at end Implementation of all the hardware upgrades aiming to a long period data taking 27

28 IT Read-out scheme The cylindrical Anode is segmented with a 2-D set of X-V strips providing point space measurement X strips read-out from above V strips read-out from below and partially from above Xpitch = Vpitch = 650 µm XV angle = 40 Resolutions: σ rφ ~ 190 µm; σ z ~ 370 µm X and V strips are engraved on the same kapton plane V strips are connected with electrical vias

29 Test results: electron transparency Typical curves for electron transparency vs drift, transfer and induction fields are the fingerprint of a GEM Results are in perfect agreement with those obtained with planar triple-gem operated with the same gas mixture Is=anode current Id=cathode current I3d=current on the bottom side of the third GEM 29

30 Simulation of the GEM glued junction line the ~3mm overlap kapton region has been simulated (Maxwell+Garfield) the effect is a distortion of the field caused by space-charge electrons are anyway focused towards the multiplication holes of the GEM the efficiency for a MIP the middle of the overlap slightly drops from 100% to ~98% 30
