Agenda
- Formulate Near term (MIE) & long-term plans
- theta reconstruction -- first pass at formalism:
Minutes
- Participants:
- Seamus, David A., Mark Pitt., Rupesh, Wouter,
- Theta resolution -- determine kinematics?
- How well from these distributions is the spec giving us the same theta as
- Seamus:
- What do we need for the GEMS?
- - spectrometer limiting factor.
- How do we determine the spacing of the GEMS?
- What do we need for the GEMS?
- David A.:
- Thin target at exit window location to do much of the calibration.
- Seamus:
- Putting something with high Atomic mass for target will be useful
- Do not have a generator yet..
- David A:
- Want a theta resolution plot: disentangle r/dr/phi/dphi dependence
- Seamus
- Based on theta resolution, we will want to justify our GEM resolution
- David A.
- With LH2 target, do not have z info. So need thin target to get tight correlations.
- Seamus
- Poor optics upstream of target, but more rates from upstream too -- something to keep in mind
- David A:
- Need thin targets upstream/center/downstream location of the LH2 target.
- Seamus:
- Wrap this analysis for MIE.
- Adjust the collimator (roughly as well as we could survey them)
- Dave A./Mark P.:
- How does the APV change with collimator?
- Seamus:
- Variable that we would want to change -- add the various
- David A.:
- radial motion would be the dominant one
- take one collimator aperture, and move it radially by some amount -- 150 microns (survey) -- several mm.
- Mark P.:
- Look at Dave Mack's slide: tolerance in z and r.
David A.:
- Variables to look at:
- Moller APV
- distribution of theta, y
- Variables to look at:
- Seamus:
- Inner/Outer collimator motion
- B-field: Going to be some variations in the field -- vary the field by 1%, get dA/A: twist in phi, r. Ideally would want new field maps, but tweaking the field that we have will give us some idea as well.
- David A.:
- Move magnet, detectors
- Seamus:
- Beam & target should stay fixed
- Need raster ON for these.
- David A.:
- Ignore moving in z for anything: out sensitivity would be much less in z compared to r
- David A.:
- What are we comparing our Moller APV to?
- Moving dets would shift the Moller distributions, and change APV in any detector.
- Which is the APV that we would want to compare against? Mollers, averaged over all sectors?
- Averaging over all sectors would make us insensitive to motion in phi.
- Same with magnetic field?
- Seamus:
- B-field couples with the collimator -> therefore phi changes in B-field would affect APV.
- David A.:
- Radial tails have lower APV, and will lose these first when moving dets.
- Meet in a week, same time.
Things to Do
- What is the required GEM resolution?
- Plot reconstructed theta - Monte Carlo theta, and get the RMS of the distribution
- Sensitivities to collimator, B-field and detector locations
- Modify (inside/outside) collimator locations in r, B-field in r & phi, detector locations in r
- observe the affects in Moller APV (compared against septant averaged Moller APV)
- observe the variation in distributions of theta, y
- Modify (inside/outside) collimator locations in r, B-field in r & phi, detector locations in r
