Muon detector requirements:
Main issues: The first plane(s) has a high density of tracks -- detector should be able to cope up with high rate. ~ 10 MHz/cm2
good position resolution Should be radiation resistant Large area detector – modular arrangement Should be cost effective
Use of detectors based on micropattern technology --- GEMs, THGEMs and Micromegas

Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and its working principle
Active medium is a gas mixture. electron multiplication takes place in
holes of two copper foils separated by kapton
Amplification may use 2 or 3 stages.– Maximum size ~30 x ~30 cm2
– Cost ~$ 700 (made at CERN)
70m
140m
--- a 50 micron polyimide foil with a 5 micron Cu layer deposited on both sides of polyimide

Testing of GEM chambers @GSI
First beam test September 28-30, 2008, SIS 18 6 hours of beamtime we had carried two chambers –2GEM and 3GEM chambers Testing with proposed FEE for CBM -- first successful test with n-XYTER readout chip(64 channels connected) Testing of the chambers with real DAQ Response to 3.5 GeV protons. --- Obtained MIP spectra, saw the beam spot --- cluster spread….granularity test could not be done as only alternate channels were bonded.
Second beam test Aug 29-September 8th , 2009, SIS 18 --- Carried two triple GEM chambers the difference being that one of the chambers had a larger induction gap than the other.

Do we see plateau at 3000V?
Saturated fraction Increases with HV up to ~22%. (the dynamic range of n-xyter is 20 fC)

Observations from test beam08 experience: Both triple and double GEM gives MIP peak and Sr90 spectra
Triple GEM:• MIP peak and detection eff increases with HV• Eff plateau at 3000V?• Number of cells/cluster increases slowly• Gain ~ 10^3• Saturation goes up with HV but slowly
Double GEM:• MIP peak seen >2900V(delta_V ~ 347 V)• No of cells ~ 1.5• detection eff, MIP peak position, cluster-size does not change drastically for higher beam intensity -- not everything fine with the AUX signal. so could not perform the efficiency studies. -- Moreover, with alternate channels connected, cluster size and efficiency studies not possible with nXYTER.

Questions remaining from last test beam• Absolute efficiency and HV dependence• Beam intensity dependence • Absolute gain estimate• Uniformity over small zone
New questions:Pad multiplicity/cluster sizePosition resolutionRequired dynamic range before saturation
Induction gap (does it increase cluster size?)

Main Features: --- more number of days as compared to last test beam --- A new fully connected nXYTER board --- An X--Y movement facility was provided exclusively for the GEM ch. --- A better trigger arrangement for efficiency studies.
--- STS, RICH + Panda (parasitic run with Panda) Summary of data taken: 2 ROCs connected to one half of each detector• small cell size in det1 and large cell size in det 2• one day data: Both large pad sizes --- First Day – Problem with SY1527 calibration --- Movement in both X and Y (Beam spot moved and went away)
Aux signals: 2 days data where Aux from different detectors can be correlated (can be used for position resolution) One day data for good AUX (crucial for eff) Trigger data: One run for 10 minutes

PAD multiplicity
• Two back to back detectors similar pad multiplicity..
• No effect of increased induction gap?
(Last day’s data, det2 had low eff, went bad after 3500V)
Depends on beam profile, needs correlating with beam tracker
(Same granularity but different induction gap)
-- no effect of induction gap on the cluster size
![Page 31: Chamber R&D for CBM Muon Tracker Anand Kumar Dubey VECC, Kolkata](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e4d5503460f94b4311a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Efficiency of detector 1 (large pad size)
Only aux2 taken, all aux gives low eff (23%).
Time window: 900-1200 nsec
Detector2 (5th sept data) goes upto 71%
• Maybe we need 5-fold coincidence• Above>3600V, nXYTER saturates, needs larger dyn range

Further analysis and issues:
• Correlation with beam counter for position resolution.• Pad to pad variation • Absolute gain study from Fe-55 data
Puzzle: Low efficiency (Gain high, large eff expected, better beam defn? Wider (and grass) time spectra
Plan: Efficiency at lab with Fe-55 and cosmic ray Test cross-talks if any Build rectangular pads – to avoid mapping confusions Problem with 2-hour beam time?? --- efficiency studies by Bipasha
![Page 38: Chamber R&D for CBM Muon Tracker Anand Kumar Dubey VECC, Kolkata](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649e4d5503460f94b4311a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Efficiency of charged particle detection : --- will be done using cosmics. We have the setup ready at VECC and with Ortec -142IH (charge sensitive preamp) we could get some efficiency numbers. --- we need a fast preamp : Christian gave us one. It worked fine for some days before developing some snag. Which fast preamp to use – any suggestions ?? Problem with Chamber : resolve the butterfly problem: (1) use nXYTER and test it with Fe55 source – if the butterfly is obtained, then something wrong with the detector. -- some cross talk is appearing somewhere. We have to think which is an easy way. (2) det02 – in case det01 is not found O.K. Cluster size distribution: in lab can be determined using Fe55+nXYTER
Issues to resolve
