Use of signals from slow drift detectors for generation of level 1 muon trigger

Abstract

We show a trigger scheme using slow drift detector signals for the generation of precisely timed trigger signals. We studied possible ways to realize this idea using a two-stage mean timer to analyze signals from projective pairs of drift tubes. The first stage symmetrizes the relative times of signals from a 4-layer superlayer. A condition for track separation is specified by paired pulses symmetric spaced about the total drift time. The second stage of analysis uses a position sensitive mean timer and trigger pulse can generated by a 4-fold coincidence. The second stage mean timer allows a more effective suppression of random and combinatorial coincidences. 4 refs., 4 figs.
