GEM/DHCAL ith KPiX d t GEM/DHCAL with KPiX readout

  • Due to the synchronous design of KPiX, data taking

efficiency was low with (asynchronous) source. y ( y )

  • KPiX v7 offers new timing flexibility.

W iti f 7 t d d t l bt ti t

  • Waiting for v7 -> study pedestal subtraction to

(eventually) extract MIP distribution

  • Also study channel variation/stability of calibration and

pedestal feedback to SLAC KPiX developers.

Calibration studies with KPiX v4

Goals: Goa s

  • understand relation between pedestal distribution and

“zero-charge” injected distribution zero charge injected distribution.

  • investigate stability of gain, response to injected

charge pedestals > subtraction of noise to yield MIP charge, pedestals -> subtraction of noise to yield MIP signals. d st d f t s th t i fl i t ( h l

  • understand factors that influence gain etc. (channel

to channel, single channel/environment, long-term fluctuations fluctuations…

  • ultimately – develop calibration procedure (how often,

length of calibration/pedestal runs ) length of calibration/pedestal runs,…)
