Physics and Experiment Board Mandate

The Physics and Experiment Board (PEB) defines the physics goal of the experiment and co-ordinates and assesses activities concerning physics topics of interest. The PEB defines the needed performance of the experiment and the design of the plasma cell and the experimental detectors. It acts also, in close connection with the Speakers Committee, as the steering group for the preparation of physics publications, notes and oral presentations.

The Physics and Experiment Coordinator proposes in consultation with the Spokesperson the organization of the Physics and Experiment Board to the Management Board for confirmation.

The PEB is composed of the Physics-Experiment Coordinator, his/her deputies, physicists appointed ad personam, and the task group leaders. The Management Board members are ex-officio members of the PEB.

The PEB takes decisions on the performance of the experiment, the simulations, data analysis, conception and writing of papers. The PEB can formulate proposals to the MB and to the TB for the optimization of physics performances and the definition of running conditions. The meetings of the PEB are chaired by the Physics and Experiment Coordinator. The work and the decisions of the PEB are recorded in minutes, which are made available to the Collaboration.

ELECTRON SPECTROMETERSummary Electron Spectrometer Day, 26 March 2014 (Compiled by Edda, reviewed by Rhodri and Patric)Present:

Enrico Bravin, Allen Caldwell (via Vidyo), Lawrence Deacon, Edda Gschwendtner, Jan Hansen, Simon Jolly, Rhodri Jones, Patric Muggli, Ans Pardons, Chiara Pasquino, Alexey Petrenko (via Vidyo), Matthew Wing. Presentations:

The presentations can be found on indico at http://indico.cern.ch/event/309338/Outcome and list of Actions: Action Patric, Alexey: Provide a document that summarizes an electron beam parameter set, which can be used for the spectrometer design. This includes the electron beam parameters at the entrance of the plasma cell and also the beam parameters at the exit of the plasma cell. Define (in the Physics and Experiment Board) the energy range and resolution we need to cover with the electron spectrometer. Send design drawings of optical diagnostics to Ans.

Action Chiara, Alexey:Define the proton beam size and aperture required at the electron spectrometer.

P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/201414

Actions:Separate the spectrometer response and the readout response.Do all calculations in steps and show the results for each step. Provide the individual contributions to the spectrometer resolution as a function of detected energy coming from

transverse emittance (zero dispersion)dispersion (point source):

For the 2 scenarios (on axis & side injection) detailed above, calculate the number of visible photons generated for a fixed magnetic field:

as a function of position along the scintillator screenas a function of energy

Track the vertical beam size through the spectrometer to determine the vacuum pipe size. Look at the influence of other effects that can limit the measurements. E.g. the fringe fields of the magnet, correlation between energy and emittance or size, etc…Make a full comparison between having the scintillator inside and outside the vacuum, studying for example:

What is the maximum radiation length allowed in case the electron beam passes through a window. If viewports of adequate size be found for the scintillator in vacuum case

Automate the generation of the results so that the expected energy spectra in the experiment can be systematically generated from various phase space distributions. Specify the minimum needed vacuum level. Send design drawings of the spectrometer to AnsAction Ans:Make first integration design of the entire area downstream the plasma cell. Integrate design of the spectrometer and proton detectors Send request for cables, racks, etc… to institutes

P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/201415

Action Jan:give limits and recommendations for proposed vacuum window (Mylar window or Silicon window (MPP)) Note:CERN has reserved a fellow in the beam instrumentation group (BE-BI) to study AWAKE BI issues. After the spectrometer day, a meeting took place between CERN and UCL where it was agreed that a close collaboration between CERN and UCL would be setup where UCL would concentrate on studies of the spectrometer response and the CERN fellow would concentrate on the readout response. Action Edda, BI, UCL: A type of MoU will be setup between BE-BI and UCL where the work-package and the responsibilities will be described. Action BI in collaboration with UCL:Come up with what you need in terms of resolution for the detector response.

How many electrons do we expect?What is the spatial resolution needed on the screen? Study the trade-off between sensitivity and life-time of the screens.Which camera is needed?What is the maximum radiation length allowed in case the electron beam passes through a window.

Study the response of the spectrum in the detectors. Use the real camera binning.Is an intensifier needed?Give absolute results. Consider radiation levels in calculations

Study scintillating fibres and PMs, collector plates.Use an optical line to move streak-camera out? There is no streak. camera in the spectrometer, this is for the relative timing of the various beams …

SIMULATIONS

Phase-space of the proton bunch along the plasma•Determine the “average” beam size as well as radius of the outmost particle•Determine proper pipe size and/or radiation/activation produced Phase-space of the proton bunch at the end of the plasma to be propagated balistically after the plasma to determine:•“average” beam size as well as radius of the outmost particle•proper pipe size and/or radiation/activation produced•transition radiation foils diameter•possible proximity of electro-optic probes•amplitude of coherent transition radiation (CTR) and transverse CTR fields•spectrum of the CTR/TCTR•optimum position/depth of modulation for SMI diagnostics•beam size all the way to dump apertures Phase-space of the electron bunch along the plasma•Determine energy gain depending on actual plasma length Phase-space of the electron bunch along the end of the plasma to be propagated balistically after the plasma to determine:•the electron beam size and emittance after the plasma•energy spectrum as it may be observed with the electron spectrometer•the interaction between the electron and the proton beam after the plasma and in the spectrometer

The above data should be saved and labeled and archived for every simulation that is ran with enough confidence in the results. The physical parameters (beam and plasma, all of them) should be attached for each case.

Detailed results must be available (not just publications and summary slides)!!

Page 19: P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/2014 Summary of the 1 st Meeting of the Physics and Experiment Board Patric Muggli Max Planck Institute for Physics Munich muggli@mpp.mpg.de

P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/201419

SIMULATIONSIn addition specific runs should be performed within the parameter range that will be available in the experiment (to the best of the current knowledge). For example:•plasma density 1014-1015 cm 3‑

•plasma length up to 10m•plasma radius 1-2mm•proton bunch number 1-3x1011

•proton bunch length 8-12cm•some variation of the seed position (a fraction of 12cm)•proton bunch radius (what can we expect, either as fluctuations or a variations that we can impose?)

With at least seven parameters and assuming a number of runs needed for each parameter range (at least three, low, medium, high) this is already potentially 36=729 runs. This is a large number and priorities may have to be determined. Computers may have to be purchased … It is very important to have results for non-optimized cases in order to understand how to maximize the chances to be able to run the experiment as detect something. An experiment becomes much easier when there is a signal to play with and optimize. This is a main concern when planning.

Detailed results must be available (not just publications and summary slides)!!

SIMULATIONSInjection:

•How do trapping htrap, eN, E, ∆E depend on electron beam waist size (OAI)?

Detailed results must be available (not just publications and summary slides)!!Need a repository for simulation results containing:•Input parameters•Proton beam phase space, at least at plasma exit (diag., beam line design, radiation, …)•Electron beam phase space (spectrometer design, other diag.)•Other figures/plots that can be generated automatically for each simulation

•Large size repository (MPP, CERN, BNP, …)

Technical Board

The Technical Board (TB) is the principal steering group in all matters of technical coordination and is chaired by the technical coordinator. The TB is composed of the Task-Group Coordinators (TGCs), CERN Work-package leaders (WPL) and sub-work-package leaders (SWPL). Members of the MB and the Deputy Technical Coordinator are ex-officio members of the TB. In the spirit of the mandate of the Technical Coordinator (TC) the TGCs, WPLs and SWPLs work together with and report to the TC on all issues covered by the mandate of the TC. The TC may set up, in consultation with the TB and on an ad-hoc basis, special working groups or task forces to address specific technical issues or advise on certain technical solutions. The TB is authorized to take technical decisions, which the TB deems not to have a significant impact on performance or cost of the AWAKE experiment. More important technical decisions are prepared in the form of a proposal by the TB for discussion at and decision by the MB. The Technical Coordinator or, in his absence, the Deputy Technical Coordinator chairs the TB. The TB meets regularly, typically once a month. The TC may call for extraordinary meetings of the TB to deal with specific or urgent topics.

The decisions of the TB are recorded in minutes, which are made available to the Collaboration.

New AWAKE Collaboration Organization

Page 32: P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/2014 Summary of the 1 st Meeting of the Physics and Experiment Board Patric Muggli Max Planck Institute for Physics Munich muggli@mpp.mpg.de

P. Muggli, CERN, 09/04/201432

Motivation• Based on the experience in the last months (since the AWAKE experiment got approved), there is an urgent

need to restructure and better organize the AWAKE collaboration in order to meet the experimental goal of having first proton beam to the plasma cell in 2016 and electron acceleration in 2017. – Too many parallel issues/contacts– Lack of information distribution– Integration of the experiment at CERN covers every equipment from institutes.

• We need an institution where all issues concerning the design, installation and integration of the AWAKE experiment are coordinated and defined: – Follow-up the technical progress of the different groups/tasks:

• Groups/institutes explain what they do and issues must be made aware to all concerned.• The work is justified in front of the collaboration and put on the table.

– Providing specifications of the technical implementation. – Milestone tracking and scheduling. – Take technical decisions.– Follow-up and documentation (minutes, reviews)

• We need an institution where the the required performance of the experiment and the physics goals are defined:– Defining measurements parameters and measurement strategy of the experiment.– Perform simulation and evaluation of physics performance.– Defining requirements to the experimental setup based on simulations.– Defining the design of the plasma cell and experimental detectors. – Defining data analysis tools and strategies.
