摘要:

MEG检测器设计用于测试$μ^+\rightarrow e^+γ$衰减到几个$10^{-13}$的分支比时的轻子味破坏。衰变拓扑学包括在单色光子的同时发射,其方向与单色正电子相反。相对时间$t_{e^+γ}$的精确测量对于抑制背景是至关重要的。定时计数器(TC)用于精确测量$e^+$的到达时间,并向触发系统提供信息。它由衰变靶的上游和下游两个扇区组成,每个扇区由两层组成。外板由膨胀棒制成,内板由膨胀纤维制成。它们的设计标准和性能进行了说明。

英文摘要:

The MEG detector is designed to test Lepton Flavor Violation in the $μ^+\rightarrow e^+γ$ decay down to a Branching Ratio of a few $10^{-13}$. The decay topology consists in the coincident emission of a monochromatic photon in direction opposite to a monochromatic positron. A precise measurement of the relative time $t_{e^+γ}$ is crucial to suppress the background. The Timing Counter (TC) is designed to precisely measure the time of arrival of the $e^+$ and to provide information to the trigger system. It consists of two sectors up and down stream the decay target, each consisting of two layers. The outer one made of scintillating bars and the inner one of scintillating fibers. Their design criteria and performances are described.
