OUTLINE:•Introduction and requirements•Detectors and test beam performance•Electronics, including reference timing•Laser tests•PMT lifetime•Cost, Schedule, TDAQ
AFP Technical Review CERN April 7, 20111
10 picoseconds is design goal(light travels 3mm in 10 psec!)gives ~x20 fake background rejection;Stage I: 2014 220 m few 1033 t < 20 ps Stage II: 2016 add 420 m 1034 t <10 ps
Motivation
22
Use time difference between protons to measure z-vertex and compare with inner detector vertex. In 220 m phase this will provide crucial confirmation that any observed signal is legit
Pileup background rejection/signal confirmation Ex: Two protons from one interaction and two b-jets from another

Note: For 220 m at modest luminosity/multiple interactions, the requirements are not as stringent:
20 ps resolution, perhaps 1-2 MHz/pixel, multi-protons on same side not a significant problem, and the Level 1 trigger capability is not strictly necessary.
AFP Baseline Plan
Two types of Cerenkov detector are employed:GASTOF – a gas Cerenkov detector that makes a single measurement
QUARTIC – two QUARTIC detectors each with 4 rows of 8 fused silica bar will be positioned after the last 3D-Si tracking station because of the multiple scattering effects in the fused silica.
Both detectors employ Microchannel Plate PMTs (MCP-PMTs)

From joint 2010 ATLAS/CMS CERN TBt(G1-G2)=14 ps implies 10 ps single detector resolution! BUT… only one single measurement, no segmentation, electronics challenging.
Wonderful detector developed by K. Piotrzkowski (U.C. Louvain).Low index of refraction means little time dispersion, extremely accurate, radiation hard, little material for Multiple scattering

4x8 array of 5-6 mm2 fused silica bars
QUARTIC is Primary AFP Timing Detector UTA, Alberta, Giessen, Stony Brook, FNAL
Multiple measurements with “modest” resolution simplifies requirements in all phases of system1) We have a readout solution for this option (can plug GASTOF into this)2)We can have a several meter cable run to a lower radiation area where electronics will be located (without degrading overall system resolution)3)Segmentation and L1 trigger is natural for this detector4)Possible optimization with fibers instead of bars—discuss later
Only need a 40 ps measurement if you can do it 16 times: 2 detectors with 8 bars each, with about 10 pe’s per bar

2010 QUARTIC Test Beam Results
Time Difference between adjacent bars is <20 ps, implies <14 ps/barincluding bar, PMT, CFD! Too good to be true: due to charge sharing and light sharing, bars are correlated.
Time Difference between “distant bars” 4 and 7 is 37 ps, implies 25 ps/bar (exceeds QUARTIC design goals!!!)

siPM-(avg of 3 quartic bars ) reduced from ~28 (for single bar) to 21ps consistent with expectations

•Facilitates variable bin size to optimize rate+lifetime•Simulations promising•Needs upgraded readout electronics to fully evaluatePrototype performance
Preliminary Fermilab tests indicate improved time resolution over quartz bars by up to 30%, even though less total light More studies needed including effect of fiber pigtails for better mapping onto the MCP-PMT

Reference Timing OverviewReference timing is needed to connect two arms ~ 0.5 km apart; what we want is TL-TR, what we measure is (TL-Tref)-(TR-Tref), so need small jitter in Tref Solution has been developed by SLAC/LLNL involving phase lock loop. We need only minor modifications to use 400 MHz RF instead of 476 MHz, and circuit to convert 400 MHz to 40 MHz and multiplex clock for use in HPTDC board
20
Reference Timing Test Results
SLAC test show 10 ps total variation over 20 C! Adding a correction for temperature, or controlling temperature of electronics (not cable) will reduce the jitter to a couple ps!)
Ref. Timing Rate Ref. Timing Rate ReductionReduction
Concern: integrating reference time into DAQ since 40 MHz rate too high for occupancy restrictionsBut actually we only need reference time for good events!1) Form a trigger based on multiplicity of CFD signals in one row
-example if at least 4/8 bars have a signal 2) Only send CFD signals to HPTDC board if trigger is satisfied 3) Trigger reference time signal as well, so a chip will have 4 inputs: three bars in the row where trigger was satisfied, and the ref time signal corresponding to that row 4) possibly also keep some prescaled signals for monitoring
21
L1 TRIGGERL1 TRIGGERThe Trigger formed in previous slide for controlling reference time rates can also be used for a L1 Trigger, instead of dedicated trigger detectorIn 2014-2016 simple trigger, based on hits in timing detectors, 1 CTP term for each proton side. Use large diameter air core cables to minimize the cable delay due to latency concernsFor 420 can use several bins and combine with jet information from calorimeter

10 pe Time Resolution from Laser Tests
Laser tests of Photonis 10 µm tube show that with sufficient amplification there is no dependence of timing on gain (low gain operation extends lifetime of tube) 25
No rate dependence on number of pixels hit (that’s a good thing!)
Saturation from Laser Tests
Saturation refers to the reduction in amplitude of the output signal due to the pores becoming busy at the rate increases (typically 1 msec recovery time/pore). This plot shows that saturation is a local phenomena, and is unaffected by multiple channels being on at the same time. 26
Lifetime IssuesLifetime due to positive ions damaging the photocathode is believed to be proportional to extracted charge: Q/year = I*107 sec/year Q for <I>=2 A/cm2 is 20 C/cm2/yr
Can reduce this requirement with fiber detector but still off by at least a factor of 20, so developed an R&D plan to pursue this
27
Extending Lifetime•Inhibit positive ions from reaching photo-cathode - Ion Barrier: aluminum film on top of MCP’s (had reduced collection efficiency side effect) so Nagoya developed new approach (between MCP’s). Factor of 5 or more lifetime increase (~3 C/cm2) for 4x4 SL10
28
Extending Lifetime•Minimize creation of positive ions - Use ALD coating of MCP’s (funded SBIR proposal with Arradiance and Photonis in progress)

•Harden photocathode or improve its composition - solar blind photocathode could reduce impact of positive ions 29

“Schedule”Minimal coupling between timing sub-components meansdevelopment and production of all parts can proceed essentially in parallel. System factorizes into1)Radiator: have a quartz bar solution, would prefer fibers if comparable performance2)PMT: likely modified Planacon or modified SL10, both have same pixel size+layout 3)Electronics chain: amplifier/CFD/HPTDC 4)Reference Clock5)Infrastructure (HV/LV/Cable)6)Detector integration into Hamburg pipe7)TDAQ integration
36
Timing TDAQ IntegrationL1: 2 CTP terms via one long large diameter air-core cable from each side (use ALFA integration solution)
Readout: Timing integration to be done via optomodule providing data from HPTDC board to standard ATLAS RODs (whichever ROD is used by Silicon system should work). One 12 channel HPTDC board required/per 8 channels of QUARTIC (each HPTDC board has 3 chips run at 80 MHz, Providing 4 channels each; two chips have 3 Q channels and a clock while the third has 2 Q’s a G and clock).
So the one GASTOF one QUARTIC option gives 48 timing readout channels/side while adding an extra QUARTIC gives 96/side. If we add the ADC that would give an ADC channel for each timing channel. So the minimal system (1Q+1G no ADC) has 96 total readout channels, while the full system would have (2Q+1G+ADC) 192+66= 258 channels
37
Substantial progress in all phases of fast timing, including integrating trigger capabilities into fast timing detector/electronics
We have a prototype fast timing system for AFP that seems to be capable of ~10 ps resolution, validated with beam and laser tests
Significant improvements in lifetime by Nagoya/Hamamatsu ; also through UTA collaborations with Arradiance, Photonis, Photek on lifetime. Solution exists for modest integrated charge (few C/cm2), 10-20 C/cm2 seems achievable on a few year timescale.
In progress: final optimization and layout of detector, electronics, PMT; evaluating radiation tolerance/needs of all components
Timing detector not on critical path assuming ATLAS approves AFP in a timely manner and R&D, production funding is obtained
