KLM at Belle-II P. Pakhlov (ITEP)

Test of long strips (R. Mizuk, I. Tikhomirov) For TDR we used short strips (no long strips were available) and extrapolated light yields using measured attenuation in the Y 11 fiber. Improve groove preparation: Vladimir: saw rounded groove Fermilab: found encrustation on the groove wall brush groove mechanically difficult to avoid air bubbles in the optical gel around corners!

Cosmics test setup triggers Si. PM readout 4 strips tested simultaneously mirrors 25 cm 2. 8 m

Longitudinal profile of light yield corrected for Si. PM internal interpixel x-talk and non-perpendicular incidence thickness=10 mm = 7 mm value in TDR for both Fermilab and Vladimir Light yield is slightly better than reported in TDR. Improved production technology? Both Vladimir and Fermilab strips allow to achieve goal of 99% efficiency at 7. 5 pixel threshold at far end. .

Module-0 (full size quadrant) The main concerns before starting mass production is - to check geometrical compatibility with support structure, electronics and cabling (to fix all strip sizes) and rigity of the construction; - to elaborate operations for mass production, assembly and installation. Initial plans: - construct by November’ 10; - cosmics tests in November, then send to KEK by the end of 2010 The start of production was delayed by 2 months. The current status: - all strips and fibers are prepared - gluing of fibers has started (takes ~ 1 month) - gluing of strips to substrate (fast operation ~ few days) - support structure will be prepared in ITEP for Module 0 and sent together with scintillator segments to KEK. - technician and engineer from ITEP will come to KEK for assembly after module arrival to KEK (February-March)

Fibers are prepared - cut with actual length - both ends are milled and polished - one end is mirrored - the other glued to connector Strips with real lengths are prepared

Support structure 5 -9 mm - Net of x-y I-bars, where scintillator segments are inserted. - After installation of segments the whole structure is fixed to the existing frame with L-bars, screwed (welded) to the frame. - Preamplifier boards are fixed to the frame. - Al (polyethylene) covers are screwed to the net. - Cables are interlaid in the gap between I-bars net and cover y I-bar x I-bar frame welding at junction

Electronics

Current status

EKLM Mass production v The estimated time for whole EKLM production ~ 1. 5 year. v Should finish production by the end of 2012 v Divide the production into several (3) batches to start installation earlier

To start EKLM Mass production we need v Check performance with module-0 Should done by starting of v geometry mass production v rigidity v assembly and installation v Take decisions: Should fix by January’ 11 v thickness? 7 mm -10 mm to start production in May v strip producer (Vladimir/Fermilab) v Produce machinery: v tool for gluing fiber to the groove (filling groove with optical gel) v press for gluing strips to substrate v Buy all necessary materials (at least ⅓ of the whole amount to start) v strips (90 k$ for 3. 3 tonne (⅓)) v Y 11 fiber (48 k$ for 12 km (⅓)) v Si. PM (8 k. Ch have been bought already (>⅓)) v miscellaneous (Si. PM housing, optical gel, glue, substrate) mostly available

Choose strip producer Fermilab (USA) Vladimir (Russia) Almost identical light yield (with the equal thickness) Almost identical price (~25$ Fermilab; ~28$ Vladimir) + 20% for transportation + 20% taxes (if ITEP buys it, probably taxfree if granted) + ~40 k$ for new die Production (extrusion) time of whole amount for EKLM = 3 months + 9 months for sawing into strips Central groove is easier for filling with optical gel (pumping inside), still not clear how to brush groove quickly

Barrel KLM replacement? Can RPC work at higher bg environments? (Y. Yusa) -At forward edge the low Mu. Id efficiency in barrel can be partially recovered by EKLM - At backward side, where muons are soft, significant loose of acceptance for muon identification

Can RPC survive for another 10 years of operation? After disassembling of EKLM. April’ 11?

Partial replacement (few innermost layers) is very likely; Full replacement. . . this may happen Need to prepare design, schedule, think of installation procedure - barrel ECL cables (only at forward part): mount/dismount from the backward side, except for upper octant (chimney) - have to remove kite holder. This operation should be very well thought out. If no full replacement maintenance work is required to reduce dead region.
