Other Related Research

Abstract

A new inner detector called Layer 0 has been added to the existing silicon detector for the DZero colliding beams experiment. This detector has an all carbon fiber support structure that employs thin copper clad Kapton sheets embedded in the surface of the carbon fiber structure to improve the grounding of the structure and a readout system that fully isolates the local detector ground from the rest of the detector. Initial measurements show efficiencies greater than 90% and 0.3 ADC count common mode contribution to the signal noise.

The Layer 0 Inner Silicon Detector of the D0 Experiment

Journal Article Angstadt, R ; Bagby, L ; Bean, A ; ... - Submitted to Nucl.Instrum.Meth.A

This paper describes the design, fabrication, installation and performance of the new inner layer called Layer 0 (L0) that was inserted in the existing Run IIa Silicon Micro-Strip Tracker (SMT) of the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron {bar p}p collider. L0 provides tracking information from two layers of sensors, which are mounted with center lines at a radial distance of 16.1 mm and 17.6 mm respectively from the beam axis. The sensors and readout electronics are mounted on a specially designed and fabricated carbon fiber structure that includes cooling for sensor and readout electronics. The structure has a thinmore »« less

A New Inner Layer Silicon Micro-strip Detector for D0

Journal Article Bean, Alice - AIP Conference Proceedings

The D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron has built a new inner layer detector (Layer 0) which is being installed inside the existing D0 Silicon Micro-strip Tracker. This one layer detector will reside inside the 2.2cm radius opening and will provide superior radiation hardness to the existing silicon detector, thus insuring that the silicon tracker remains viable through Tevatron Run II. There are several unique features to the design of the detector, which resides on a carbon fiber support structure, which maximize the signal-to-noise characteristics and reduce sensitivity to pickup. We also review radiation damage measurements of the current detectormore »« less

A Silicon detector system on carbon fiber support at small radius

Conference Johnson, Marvin E

The design of a silicon detector for a p{bar p} collider experiment will be described. The detector uses a carbon fiber support structure with sensors positioned at small radius with respect to the beam. A brief overview of the mechanical design is given. The emphasis is on the electrical characteristics of the detector. General principles involved in grounding systems with carbon fiber structures will be covered. The electrical characteristics of the carbon fiber support structure will be presented. Test results imply that carbon fiber must be regarded as a conductor for the frequency region of interest of 10 to 100more »« less

Monte Carlo simulation of a quantum noise limited Čerenkov detector based on air-spaced light guiding taper for megavoltage x-ray imaging

Journal Article Teymurazyan, A. ; Rowlands, J. A. ; Thunder Bay Regional Research Institute ; ... - Medical Physics

Purpose: Electronic Portal Imaging Devices (EPIDs) have been widely used in radiation therapy and are still needed on linear accelerators (Linacs) equipped with kilovoltage cone beam CT (kV-CBCT) or MRI systems. Our aim is to develop a new high quantum efficiency (QE) Čerenkov Portal Imaging Device (CPID) that is quantum noise limited at dose levels corresponding to a single Linac pulse. Methods: Recently a new concept of CPID for MV x-ray imaging in radiation therapy was introduced. It relies on Čerenkov effect for x-ray detection. The proposed design consisted of a matrix of optical fibers aligned with the incident x-raysmore »« less

CDF Run IIb silicon: Stave design and testing

Conference Lu, Rong-Shyang

The CDF Silicon Vertex Detectors (SVX) have been shown to be excellent tools for heavy flavor physics, with the secondary vertex detection and good vertex resolution.The CDF RunIIb Silicon Vertex Detector (SVXIIb) was designed to be a radiation tolerant replacement for the current SVXII which was not anticipated to survive the projected Run II luminosity dose. The outer five layers use identical structural elements, called staves, to support six silicon sensors on each side. The stave is composed of carbon fiber skins on a foam core with a built-in cooling tube. Copper on Kapton bus cable carriers power and data/controlmore »« less
