Strategy & Assumptions

Hit finder/ hit clustering. Burst trigger design. Background and noise models. SN models. Astronomical models.

  • 8 radiological backgrounds.
  • Are there more?
  • Correct rates?
  • White noise.
  • Coherent noise?
  • Not considered cosmics.
  • 1 specific supernova

model used.

  • Hudepohl model.
  • 11.2 solar mass

progenitor.

  • Effect of oscillations?
  • Number of events expected.
  • Distribution of SN candidates

in the galactic neighbourhood.

  • Simple minded addition of

LMC to the distribution.

DESIGNED TO BE MODULAR:

Fast ‘back of the envelope’ approach to establish broad features of DUNE’s ability and DAQ requirements to capture neutrinos from a SN. Many questions and assumptions still to be addressed.

  • Hits ordered sequentially by channel. Walk along the wires looking for hits on adjacent

channels.

  • Within these channel cluster, group hits close in time.
  • Finally require a certain number of hits in a cluster.

Takes channel ordered hits from a hit finder (currently Gauss hit).

It’s fast: Given the assumptions e.g. an ordered list of hits was provided, the clustering for 10kt could be run on a single CPU.

Input to burst trigger:

Different clustering algorithms allow the trade off between lower efficiency and background rate to be explored.

SN Burst Trigger

11

Unique signatures of SN burst:

  • Events spread out over a long time (exponential cooling of SN with 2-3

second decay time).

  • Events typically higher energy than background.

Strategy: keep it very simple for now.

  • Count the number of hit-clusters in a 10 second window.
  • Trigger above a threshold number of hit-clusters.

Fake triggers:

  • Use background rate from clustering algorithm, assume it fluctuates in

Gaussian way.

  • Can map out burst-trigger rate as a function of threshold number of hit-

clusters.

LMC Milky Way

Conclusion: can trigger on nearby SN easily. However, capturing the 1/5 of SN coming from LMC requires more work and is more dependent on our assumptions (e.g. hard to model neutron bkg). Assuming a fake burst trigger rate of 1/month, what is our SN sensitivity vs. distance? Close SN, easy to trigger Galaxy edge, harder to trigger

Require larger clusters to increase sensitivity

High data rate: 1.5 TB / s / 10kt module

Time profile studies potentially very sensitive to SN model.

Establish DAQ requirements: Non-volatile buffer (read-out time). Extract maximal information.

Closer SN, longer time. Further SN, less time.

Record all but 1 event in ~ 28 s, any GNSN.

Summary

16

  • Reasonable to consider issuing a burst trigger for SN in the region of the Milky Way and

LMC.

  • In simulation shown that radiologicals are the dominant background.
  • Demonstrated a simple burst trigger capable of catching 98% of supernovae in the

galactic neighbourhood, issuing on average 1 fake trigger 1/month.

BURST TRIGGER: TIME PROFILE STUDIES

  • Shape of profile is model dependent, e.g. with/without oscillations.
  • Studies influence DAQ requirements.
  • Record all but 1 event of any galactic neighbourhood SN in ~28s.

Many questions and assumptions still to be ironed out.

Applied a fast ‘back of the envelope’ approach to establish broad features of DUNE’s ability and DAQ requirements to capture neutrinos from a SN.

GOAL: Understand supernova triggering efficiencies and corresponding background rates for different levels of trigger.

  • Using an amended version of the DAQSimAna (M. Baird, K. Warburton)

module in dunetpc (DAQSimAna/SNAnaClustering/SNAna_module.cc).

  • Running on files produced at Christmas, SN+radiologicals+white noise.
  • Non-compressed, ~750000 events each of 1 drift window and containing 1

MARLEY neutrino per event. Include Ar42. 1x6x2 geometry.

  • Gauss hit finder to pick out hits. All collection plane. Save hit primitives

such as hit time, ADC sum of hit, hit RMS etc.

  • Backtrack each of these hits to a generator - was it radiological/noise/

supernova.

Cluster hits in channel and time space, make geometric cuts, trigger on number of hits in the cluster.

Why not fast hit yet?

Problems with Hit Size = End time - start time

  • Fast hit looks for time bins with ADC above a user defined ADC threshold. >2

bins above threshold, calls it a hit.

  • Start time = first bin above threshold, end time = last bin above threshold.

Results in many ‘skinny’ hits in time -> Many hits not correctly backtracked.

Gauss Hit

Originally developed by Jonathan Asaadi but expanded by many.

  • Finds pulses in each view above individually configured thresholds.
  • ‘Touching’ hits on a channel are merged up to a configurable max.
  • Hits fit to a gaussian peak for:
  • Start and end time.
  • Peak time.
  • Peak ADC.
  • Total hit ADC is integral of raw data, not fit by default.
  • Default generous max Chi^2 for allowed hits.

Has a hard coded hit size minimum of 5 ticks.
