  • PMT issues

PH A D1 … D8 High Lumi. Effect on PMT entrance: Gain ↓ instantaneous L ,↑ integrated L, already seen from Tiles close to the Beams*. Effects on the last Dynodes: Gain ↑ at HL-LHC. PMT signal

Minimum Bias Events at HL-LHC  High DC current on the last dynodes ( Amplification at each stage)  Decrease of the interdynode voltages  Increase of voltages on the first dynodes because HV kept constant  Increase of PMT: non-linearity of AC pulses for high DC currents. *2 PMTs back to LPC:  PMT Test Bench could provide useful information.

  • Concept of active Dividers

Passive Dividers Active Dividers ▪ High sensitivity to high DC current  Non linearity to AC PMT pulses ▪ Transistors on the last 3 stages  Constant voltages. ▪ Diodes on the 3 last stages  Protect transistors/Off-On switching.

  • Systematic tests of passive/active Dividers

No other electronics than a scope (No bias)

Active Passive

 Comparisons for a given AC pulse (~ 100 GeV)

  • f 20 sets ″PMT-passive-active Dividers″

as a function of DC (Minimum Bias).

▪ Without PMTs: on the Divider Test Bench ▪ With PMTs: on a dedicated set-up

 Comparisons of sets of 10 passive/active Dividers.

 Full concept validation with the goal of NL < 1%

Atlas Note Active Dividers for the Tile Calorimeter for the ATLAS Detector ATL-TILECAL-INT-2014-005 (02 July 2014) [Clermont-Ferrand authors] 27 pages Passive Active 10 µA 3.4 ± 0.6 50 µA < 0.5 40 µA 13.5 ± 2.4 120 µA < 1 Non-linearity in % versus DC (Averages over 20 bases)

  • Passive Dividers are no longer fitting the specifications.
  • Active Dividers fit perfectly with a large safety margin.
  • Not shown today: good agreement with simulations.

  • Radiation tests

▪ Test Bench + PCB + Analysis: Clermont-Ferrand

with a current injection of 40 µA on dynode 8 (to push the NL).

Irradiated PCB 20 Dividers (Atlas rules) and also 8 Diodes and 16 Transistors

▪ ATLAS rules on location, simulations, new Safety factors

NIEL: 0.6 1013 eq-1 MeV n/cm2 (pushed up to 1.5 1013 old Safety factors) TID : 225 Gy (pushed up to 525 with old Safety factors)

▪ Irradiations

Neutrons: Valduc (CEA France) by Clermont-Fd team. Gammas: Brookhaven (USA) by Argonne team.
