摘要:

介绍了ALICE时间投影室的设计、建造和调试。它是CERN LHC的ALICE实验中用于模式识别,跟踪和识别带电粒子的主要设备。TPC为圆柱形,体积接近90 m^3,在平行于其轴的0.5 T螺线管磁场中运行。在本文中,我们详细描述了这个探测器的操作在极端的多重性环境中的中心铅-铅碰撞在LHC能量的设计考虑。硬件(场笼,读出室,电子),基础设施(气体和冷却系统,激光校准系统)和软件的实施导致了许多技术创新,这些技术创新与目前实现的探测器的所有主要组件一起介绍。我们还报告了完成第一轮独立校准运行后所实现的性能,并证明结果接近TPC技术设计报告中规定的结果。

英文摘要:

The design, construction, and commissioning of the ALICE Time-Projection Chamber (TPC) is described. It is the main device for pattern recognition, tracking, and identification of charged particles in the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. The TPC is cylindrical in shape with a volume close to 90 m^3 and is operated in a 0.5 T solenoidal magnetic field parallel to its axis. In this paper we describe in detail the design considerations for this detector for operation in the extreme multiplicity environment of central Pb--Pb collisions at LHC energy. The implementation of the resulting requirements into hardware (field cage, read-out chambers, electronics), infrastructure (gas and cooling system, laser-calibration system), and software led to many technical innovations which are described along with a presentation of all the major components of the detector, as currently realized. We also report on the performance achieved after completion of the first round of stand-alone calibration runs and demonstrate results close to those specified in the TPC Technical Design Report.
