Gerhard Mallot retirement –COMPASS CERN group composition

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 4

Medium-size experiments as COMPASS can not be managed and operated without a

reasonable size CERN group (Thanks a lot to CERN for the support provided so far).

1.) Current CERN group composition (EP-SME-CO):

- 1. Jens Barth (2017 Run Coordinator) – Paid Scientific Ass. (SASS)

- 2. Didier Cotte (Hall technician) - Paid by Collaboration (STAF)

- 3. Oleg Denisov (Spokesperson) - Paid Scientific Ass. (SASS)

- 4. Bakur Parsamyan (Analysis Coord.) - Paid Scientific Ass. (SASS)

- 5. Caroline Riedl (Technical Coord.) – Project Associate (PJAS)

- 6. Gerhard Mallot (Resource Coordinator, EXSO) – staff (STAF)

- 7. Dominik Steffen (DAQ) - Doctoral Student (DOCT)

- 8. Ondrej Subrt (DAQ) - Doctoral Student (DOCT)

- 9. Annika Vauth (Beam Coordinator) - Applied Fellow (FELL)

-10. Barbara Badelek - Corresponding Ass. (CASS)

2.) Thus normally COMPASS is supported with 2 PSA, 1-2 PJAS, FELL, 2 DOCT and

a CERN Staff position.

3.) Gerhard will retire on Nov. 30, 2019 but has to use ~ 1 year of vacation beforehand (he

will stay as resource coordinator till Nov. 30, 2019)

4.) A limited duration CERN position (3-5 years) overlapping with Gerhard’s contract would

help a lot to manage the Collaboration during the approved programme and beyond 2020.

DVCS 2016/2017

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 7

• Analysis of 2016 data is in progress, no indications for a difference in positive and negative muon data in 2016 (<2%)

• Default strategy for 2017 data taking remains equal intensity for positive and negative muons, data taking has started in the beginning of May

• Important: SPS beam dump was substituted and the new one performs well

• Physics data taking has been started on June 3rd, so commissioning has been done very efficiently

Drell-Yan 2015Analysis status

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 10

First ever polarised Drell-Yan data were published in PRL,

One of PRL referees: “This paper represents a major milestone in nucleon

structure study, has deep impacts to the strong interaction theory QCD and

physics in general, and should attract attentions from a wider audience.

This ground-breaking paper should definitely be published in PRL.”

Drell-Yan 2018Preparation is started

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 11

Final goal after 2nd year: unambiguously

verify Sivers asymmetry sign change

We aim to triple the total polarised data

sample and to improve the PT + overall

spectrometer performance (Trigger, Beam

telescope etc.) in order to achieve the

statistical uncertainty on Sivers asymmetry

(2015+2018) of ~ 0.025-0.03 and to collect

the world’s largest kaon and anti-proton DY

data sample.

Our SPSC referees warned about heavy

ion run requested by NA63, it will damage

our program.Changeover preparation:

Key CERN groups contacted for change over for 2018 DY starting October 23.

TE-CRG (cryogenics), EP-DT (PT magnet controls), EN-HE (heavy handling), ...

Schedules being worked out, no show stoppers.

Beyond 2020 dedicated Workshop

- Good attendance (>100 physicists), large interest- 11 “outside” review talks – Jefferson Lab, RHIC, Fermilab, KEK (Japan) BEPC II (IHEP, Beijing), NICA (JINR, Dubna), CERN (After, LHCb), GSI (Panda), J-PARC (Japan), EIC – China;- 7 COMPASS talks (chronol.) – SIDIS, GPDs, Chiral Dynamics, astrophysics (dark matter), Drell-Yan, hadron spectroscopy;- 2 “round-table”-like discussions on possible future with hadron and muon beams;

- Outcome of the Workshop:- RF Separated antiproton/kaon beam would provide a unique opportunity for future fixed target COMPASS-like program at CERN- Existing muon and hadron beam allows to extend current COMPASS program by doing unique or first class measurements of exclusive processes, SIDIS and Drell-Yan

Short term COMPASS future

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 18

Short term future COMPASS Proposal (extension of the COMPASS-II experiment for running after LS2 (2019-2020)) was submitted to the

SPSC ~2 month ago.

Decision by the SPSC (recommendation) is expected in January 2018

Page 19: COMPASS FRC meeting 21/11/2017 Status of COMPASS-II · COMPASS CERN group composition 21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 4 Medium-size experiments as COMPASS can not be managed and operated

Short term COMPASS future I :SIDIS – transversely polarised Deuteron Target (6LiD)

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 19

- TMD PDFs and Transversity h1(x) are flavour dependent.- Flavour separation data on both proton (NH3) and deuteron (6LiD) transversely polarised targets.- Proton data set is factor of 4 compare to deuteron (see error bars for transversity h1(x) in the plot below)-It is logical to increase the deuteron data set (so far the only data sets available are COMPASS (6LiD) and CLAS (3He) targets).

Competitors: - No competitors inour kinematic range,Jlab will start by 2020

Long term COMPASS future

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 21

Long term future COMPASS-like experiment LoI (new physics) is under preparation now. The goal is to bring together strongly

renewed COMPASS-based Collaboration (will have a different name)enthusiastic about opportunities of doing physics at CERN with

conventional and newly designed RF separated kaon and antiproton beams. The total duration of the program reaches 7-8 years of

running with hadron and muon beams.

Indications by European Strategy Group is expected at the beginning of 2020 (May?).

RF separated antiproton/kaon beam

21/11/2017Oleg Denisov

23

Assumptions: – 8 x 107 antiprotons for 1013 ppp (10 seconds) (optimistic estimate by Lau Gatignon);

– we assume here 4 x 1013 protons.

Antiprotons RF separated beam: 3.2 x 107 /s - Gain is a factor of 50 compared to the standard h-

beam for Drell-Yan experiment (~1% of h- beam 6x107 /s dominated by π-)

Using the same assumption for RF separated kaon beam, possible kaon beam intensity is 8 x 106

/s - Gain is a factor of 80 compared to to the standard “spectroscopy” h- beam

High intensity RF separated beam will provide unique opportunities forHadron Spectroscopy and Drell-Yan physics

“Normal” h- beam composition:

~97% (π) ~2.5%(K) ~0.5% (pbar)

RF separated beam – Hadron spectroscopy Light and Strange Meson Spectrum

21/11/2017Oleg Denisov

24

RF separated kaon beam ~ 8 x 106 /s, beam momentum ~100 GeV

What can we contribute as COMPASS?• State-of-the-art high-resolution spectrometer with full PID • Advanced analysis techniques being developed in the light-quark sectorMethod to be used: Kaon beam diffraction scattering on LH2 and thin nuclear targets

- Goal: ~10 larger data sample than existing worldwidewhat would make possible to have similar to pion diffractionwave set: 88 waves in 11 t’ bins; - COMPASS could rewrite PDG tables for strange mesons - Extend studies of chiral dynamics to strange sector

No real competitorsJParc - ~105 /s, low momenta kaons, JLab - ~104 /s, K0 long beam, lower momenta

- Measurement of kaon Compton scattering via the Primakoff effect and an RF

separated beam for determination of the kaon polarisability, and kaon-photon induced

strange meson production

- Prompt photon production to access gluon component of KaonUnique opportunities

RF separated beam – Drell-Yan

21/11/2017Oleg Denisov

26

RF separated antiproton/kaon beam, the maximal possible beam intensity(very rough estimate) of ~3-4x107 /s can be reached (antiprotons) and ~8x106 /s (kaons)

Assuming flux of 1x107 /s for kaon/antiproton,background free high mass range 4 < Mμμ < 9 GeV/c2 and

140 days of data taking with the efficiency of 2015 Drell-Yan Run.

The overall gain for RF separated beam compare to previous experiments is factor 50 to 100

RF separated beam – Drell-Yan kaon-induced DY

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 27

• Kaon-induced DY is the only source of information on kaon structure which is unknown • Together with pion induced DY will represent the unique data set for unstable particle structure study• Unpolarised case, possibility to use different nuclear targets targets (like LH2, Al, W, Cu):

1. Kaon structure function (PDFs)2. Nucleon strange quark structure 3. Fundamental Lam-Tung relation for kaon4. Boer-Mulders TMDs (quark-spin – quark-kT correl.) for kaons5. EMC effects & flavour dependent EMC effects (kaons)6. Kaon Distribution Amplitude, J/Ψ production mechanism

Summary

• Collaboration is solid and flexible, new group

• We expect still satisfactory statistics to be collected in 2016, even if SPS beam dump is a limiting factor

• Preparation of 2017 – minimal changes

• A number of new systems were commissioned and operated in 2016

• Collaboration is looking forward for second year of polarised Drell-Yan in 2018, the request was supported by SPSC in October 2016 and we expect Research Board to take a decision on Dec. 7th 2016

• We have started to shape the new physics program “beyond 2020”, and we are very enthusiastic about RF separated beam option

21/11/2017 Oleg Denisov 33

The 2012 μ+/μ- normalisation issue and

expectations for 2016/17 Run

During the 2012 run, the DVCS data was collected at μ+/μ- beam intensity of ~

2.7. The event yields in the physics analyses have been normalized to the

corresponding integrated beam fluxes. Even after proper normalisation the

exclusive events yields for the two beam charges showed a residual

discrepancy of ~20% to ~25%, depending on the considered reaction:

- ~10% is introduced by CAMERA time-of-flight detector

- while the rest can be attributed to the track reconstruction and/or the muon

triggers.

Based on these results the decision was taken

to run in 2016/2017 with equal μ+/μ- beam

Intensities.Our major concern was a limited beam intensity extracted to

COMPASS in 2016 because of the SPS Beam Dump issue (factor

1.5 lower compared to expectations).

With nominal beam intensity (as it is delivered now: 150x1011) and

2 spills in 36 s it is in reach to achieve our expectations for

collected statistics (87% compared to Proposal) even running with

the same μ+ and μ- beam intensity.

Important: thanks to very efficient work during the

commissioning period we are in physics data taking

since 03/06/2017.

RF separated antiproton beam, beam momentum ~ 20 GeV

Method: antiproton-proton annihilation

Goal: charmed hybrids and exoticsstudy in the mass range higher than reachable in PANDA

Complementary to LHCb(p-pbar annihilation – gluon rich environment and it allows high spin states)

Otherwise no competitors for the next at least 10 years
