摘要:

在FAIR的CBM实验中,双μ子将由μ子室(MUCH)检测,该μ子室由不同宽度的分段吸收体和夹在吸收体对之间的跟踪室组成。在该固定靶重离子碰撞实验中,在$10~MHz$的最高相互作用速率下操作用于$Au+Au$碰撞,在其内径环中的第一个MUCH探测器站将面对$1~MHz/cm^2$的粒子速率之后。为了在如此高的粒子密度下运行,已为MUCH的前两个台站选择了基于GEM技术的探测器。我们早些时候已经报道了几个小尺寸的GEM探测器原型在VECC用于在MUCH的性能。在这项工作中,我们报告了一个大型GEM室原型测试质子束的动量$2.36~GeV/c$在COSY-Jüelich德国。使用在自触发模式下操作的nXYTER ASIC读出检测器。在$ΔV_{GEM}~=~375.2~V$下实现了比$96\%$更高的效率。当测试到最大速率$2.8~MHz/cm^2$时,已发现效率随进入质子速率的变化在$2\%$内变化。发现增益在高粒子速率下稳定,最大变化为$\sim~9\%$。

英文摘要:

In CBM Experiment at FAIR, dimuons will be detected by a Muon Chamber (MUCH) consisting of segmented absorbers of varying widths and tracking chambers sandwiched between the absorber-pairs. In this fixed target heavy-ion collision experiment, operating at highest interaction rate of $10~MHz$ for $Au+Au$ collision, after the first MUCH detector station in its inner radial ring will face a particle rate of $1~MHz/cm^2$. To operate at such a high particle density, GEM technology based detectors have been selected for the first two stations of MUCH. We have reported earlier the performance of several small-size GEM detector prototypes built at VECC for use in MUCH. In this work, we report on a large GEM chamber prototype tested with proton beam of momentum $2.36~GeV/c$ at COSY-Jüelich Germany. The detector was read out using nXYTER ASIC operated in self-triggering mode. An efficiency higher than $96\%$ at $ΔV_{GEM}~=~375.2~V$ was achieved. The variation of efficiency with the rate of incoming protons has been found to vary within $2\%$ when tested up to a maximum rate of $2.8~MHz/cm^2$. The gain was found to be stable at high particle rate with a maximum variation of $\sim~9\%$.
