摘要:

正在研制一个圆柱形GEM探测器,作为BESIII光谱仪的升级内跟踪器。它将由围绕交互点的三层圆柱形三重GEM组成。该实验正在北京(中国)的e + e-对撞机BEPCII上进行数据采集,GEM跟踪器将于2018年安装。利用欧洲核子研究中心(CERN)SPS H4线上的μ子束,对三重GEM在强磁场中的性能进行了测试。使用不同的增益,气体混合物,有和没有磁场的效果和分辨率进行了评估。在单坐标视图上,在许多操作布置中,所获得的效率为97 - 98%。平面GEMs的空间分辨率已经评估了两种不同的算法的位置确定:电荷质心和微时间投影室(mu-TPC)的方法。这两种模式是互补的,并且能够处理当运行在磁场中时电子雪崩的不对称性,以及非正交入射轨道。在没有磁场的情况下,电荷质心的分辨率低于100微米,在磁场高达1 T的情况下,分辨率低于200微米。mu-TPC模式显示能够改善这些结果。在圆柱形原型的首次束流测试中,探测器在不同的电压配置和粒子强度下具有很好的稳定性。分辨率评估正在进行中。

英文摘要:

A cylindrical GEM detector is under development, to serve as an upgraded inner tracker at the BESIII spectrometer. It will consist of three layers of cylindrically-shaped triple GEMs surrounding the interaction point. The experiment is taking data at the e+e- collider BEPCII in Beijing (China) and the GEM tracker will be installed in 2018. Tests on the performances of triple GEMs in strong magnetic field have been run by means of the muon beam available in the H4 line of SPS (CERN) with both planar chambers and the first cylindrical prototype. Efficiencies and resolutions have been evaluated using different gains, gas mixtures, with and without magnetic field. The obtained efficiency is 97-98% on single coordinate view, in many operational arrangements. The spatial resolution for planar GEMs has been evaluated with two different algorithms for the position determination: the charge centroid and the micro time projection chamber (mu-TPC) methods. The two modes are complementary and are able to cope with the asymmetry of the electron avalanche when running in magnetic field, and with non-orthogonal incident tracks. With the charge centroid, a resolution lower than 100 micron has been reached without magnetic field and lower than 200 micron with a magnetic field up to 1 T. The mu-TPC mode showed to be able to improve those results. In the first beam test with the cylindrical prototype, the detector had a very good stability under different voltage configurations and particle intensities. The resolution evaluation is in progress.
