..Calculation of _uou Background
o
The _on background from charged pion and g decay was calculated from
ZSK production data [3.8] ac center of mass energies of 31 and 53 C_V. Special
care was taken in parameCrizing this data co be sure the behavior ac high trans-
verse momentum PT was correctly described, since event selection depends ac
least in part on htSh-pT muons. Comparison of the model with data ac rapidity
ym0 are shown for pions and K's in figs. _v-la and IV-lb. The model also works
well for nonzero y ouc co very near the edge of phase space.
d2 a/dpdpTLaboratory cross sections were chart calculated with this paramac-
rizacion on a grid of p, PT" In each bin of this srid the fraction of pion or
g decays per meter ta then m/Ccrp), where T is the lifetime of the decaytns
particle of mass m. In each bin of P'PT of interest a number of monte carlo
decays (T -_ _v, g _ _v) wart seneraced proportional to the number of parent
decays in the bin. The resultlns intesral muou spectra are plotted vs. PT in
lisa. 9,10 for several cuts ou lab momentum p. Note chat the contributions
from pion and K decay are comparable for PT > 1.2 GeV/c.
An independent check on this calculation was provided by a cape [12 ]
of 360 GeV _'p bubble-chamber events. Charged cracks from these real events
were assumed to be pious, and monte carlo decays were generated. The muou yield
from this approach agrees with the above calculation to better than 10Z°
For the background estimates in Section D, i_ is necessary co know the• °
number of muons from secondary interactions in the emulsion passing the muon
P'PT cuts° The lab momentum spectrum of pions from 800 GaV interacttous is
known from the production model described above. It was assumed that this modal
" is also approximate1)- correct for interacting pions down to 10 C_eV/c, and. the

t.
muon background program was run for "beams" with selected momenta between 10
and SO0 GeV/c, corresponding to the interacting secondaries. The yield of muons /I
passing the cuts for each such bin of secondary momentum was then weighted I
by the momentum spectrum of pions from 800 C,eV interactions. The largest coutrib-I
ut£on to muons passing the cuts was from secondaries of o_der 100 CeV/c, which
make about 6 charged prongs per interaction. We thus estimate thac limiting
charm decay vertex candidates to < 7 prongs will eliminate 40X of this interac-
• finn background.
The probability of a muou from a secondary interaction passing the P'PT
and prong cuts was found to be 0.13 times ttmt of a muon from the primary
vertex. This number must be multiplied by the probability of a secondary interac-
tion. We assume 9 charged prongs plus 2 long-lived neutral hadrons per 800
GeV interaction, and use the pion mean free path [17] og 50 cm and an effective
path in emulsion of 0.75 cm rio obtain 0.165 secondary interactions per event.

tion of the major items needed for proper execution of this experiment.
A summaryof current experimental objectives is included as Appendix
I, a list of experimenters as Appendix II, experimental layouts as Appendix
III, emulsion facility requirements as Appendix IV and PREPand computer
requirements as Appendix V.

4. Halo: Less than I/3 of the central beam flux within an area 9x9
Inches2 centered on the beam. For example, if central beam intensity!
is 2000 particles/mm2/sec,the halo must be less than 0.03 particles/

APPENDIX I
EXPERIMENTERSGOALS
E-653 is a collaborationof scientists from the United States
and Japan which will study the hadronic production of charm and beauty
using a hybrid emulsion spectrometer.
Lifetimes as short as 10"15 seconds can be measured in emulsion.
The downstream spectrometerwill be used to preselectand locate interest-
ing events from interactionsin the target produced by protons of the
highest availableenergy. The minimal trigger will require a several GeV
muon originatingin the target. Short-liveddecays containing the muonwill be tagged off-line by a very high resolution vertex detector composed
of 21 planes of slliconmicrostrip detectors (SSD), with an estimated
precision for resolving secondaryvertices of 8 microns RMS transverseto
the beam direction ahd 350 microns RMS parallel to it. The emulsion targe_
will then be scanned for these decays. The anticipatedyield from a lO0
liter exposure is 15,000 charm and 200 beauty particles. In addition, the
experimentwill have a several event/nanobarnsensitivityfor tau decays
and for new particle states with lifetimesin the range 10"11 to 10"15
seconds.
A primary goal of the experiment is measuring both charged and
neutral B-meson lifetimes,which most theories predict are so short that
they can be observed only in emulsion,
Physics ef tnter,=st in the charm system ircl,d=.s measuring l i fe-ral=.=times very precisely and setting stringent limits on DO-D° mixing, Wewill
- " be able to study branching ratios and excited states of charmed particles
in a nearly background-freeenvironment. Furthermore,we shou.ldbe able to
locate several dozen F . T . X sequentialdecays.
The apparatus is designed to have applicationsbeyond that pro-
" posed for E-653. In particular,the very high resolution of the SSD vertex
detector makes a study of charm or similar particlesfeasible without a
visual target under certain circumstances. The copious yield of events
from E-653 should prove very fruitful in designingfurther experiments.

APPENDIX IV
Necessity of Pouringand Processing Emulsion at Fermilab
In Experiment 531, all emulsion modules remained in place for months.
In Experiment 653 the exposure time is much shorter, an hour for the
vertical modules and a few pulses for the horizontalmodules. Because of
stringentrequlrements in spatial registration,the horizontalmodules will
be marked by x-rays at the time of exposure, necessitatinga somewhat
fragile design. Uhless the pelliclesare removed and stuck to lucite plates
quickly after exposure they can easily be distorted by changes in temperature
and humidity.
Further, if we pour the emulsion just before exposure and process
Immediatelyafter, we can avoid unnecessarybadkground tracks and get higher
grain density. This is extremely important for high track _ensity exposures.
By improvingthe Fermilab's pouring facility and constructinga pro-
. cessin.qfacility,we also can avoid problems associatedwith transportation
(refrigerationduring moving, etc.). Most importantly,we can concentrate
our manpower at Fermilab.
Improvementof Pouring Facility
For the second run of E-531, we produced about 30 liters of emulsion
target in one month. This ability is enough for E-653. However,we need to
make improvementson uniformityof air flows and humidifiers.
Constructionof Processin9'Faclllt¥
The processing facility requires a chiller water-coolinqsystem with a
capability of 4000 liters/day of 5 ~ 7°C water, because the solutionsmust
be kept cold to reduce distortion of thick emulsion. This makes the thick
emulsion processing system different from the system for the usual photo-
graphic films. Furthermore,thick emulsion takes longer to process. We have
to process a fair amount of emulsion at one time to reduce the total processing
time.

The processing of 600 pm thick emulsion hor|zontal type pellicles
has the following steps:
presoak (2 hours)

• dry II . (2 hours)
• dry I I I (2 hours)

• Ftx III and washing stages take longer,thus, we need more tanks
. for these two stages. With thts system wecan process 3 liters of
emulsion per day, which exceeds our E-531 rate tn Ottawa by 50%.
Based on the above considerations, the processing factltty ts

COMPUTERREQUIREMENTS _
The host computer must perform at least four separate tasks: on-ltne
event filtering, correlated monitoring, tape-writing and network handling. The
speed and memory requirements of all these tasks cannot be satisfied by a
computer smaller than a VAX/750, which will be provided tn a mtntmal configur-
ation by the experimenters. We request that Fermtlab provide additional
peripherals for thts computer, and maintain the entire host system.
Our Justification of the VAX is as follows:
The hardware trigger, which requires a muon candidate penetrating 4.5
GeV of tron absorber, wtll generate 20 events/see wtth 26 k-bytes of data per
event. With a 20 second spill once per minute and 6250 byte/inch tapes wtth
effective densities of 4800 BP], one tape of data would be produced every 13
minutes, an unacceptablyhigh rate. A factor of 4 enrichment can be obtained
from on-11ne filterlngif the host computer has sufficient speed and memory to
process an event every 150 msec. The filtered events would contain only high-
qualitymuon candidates with P >8, P_>O.2 GeV/c. Thls Is done by reconstructing
muon .candidateson either side of an iron torold and then checking for the pre-
dicted track within tight slope and position tolerances upstream, in the middle
of the calorimeterand In the spectrometerdrift chambers. The estimated
number of track candidates Is I-3 at the torold and I-5 In the predictedwindows
upstream. This filterlng task w111 be dominated by the tlme required to do the
"3 hits In 4 planes" problem In typlcal1¥8 groups of planes. Our experience
In a slmllar situation In E366 projects about 25 msec on a CDC 6600 for this
task, which translates approximatelyto 100 millisecondson a VAX/750 and 250
milliseconds on a PDP 11/45.
" The speed requirementof the filtering task Is possiblewith the VAX/750,
whlle the PDP 11/45 appears to be too slow by more than a factor 2. However, the
situationwlth the PDP 11/45 is really much worse than thls because, as we
shall show, the memory requirementsof a11 the tasks leave no room for resident,.

overlays via memory management but force real overla From disk at approxi-
mately 40 msec per overlay, an intolerablepenalty.
Although the individual subsystems in the experimentwill be monitored
by the dedicated minicomputers,a considerableamount of correlatedmonitoring
must be done by the host computer due to the extraordinaryprecision require-
ments in the vicinity of the target and the continuousmovement of the emulsion
stack. It is essential, for example, to continuouslyreconstructand fit beam
tracks through the whole system of detectors. Efficlencies,global checks, event
display and precision alignmentmonitoring will require at least 26 k-bytes of
buffers and 50 k-bytes of code and array storage. In fact, it is reasonable
to anticipate that the memory requirementsof the correlatedmonitoring of
E-553 will exceed those of the total monitoring of the much simpler E-531,
which was I00 k-bytes.
Additional storage is required by the tape-wrltingand network handling
tasks, which are continuouslyactive. We have estimated the total memory
requirementson a PDP 11/45 as follows:

Appendix CThe SSD Prototyping and Testing Program
_rhe SSD prototyplng and testing program has basically three goals:
a) Check charge collection,' b) Check track point resolution,
c) Check vertex reconstruction resolution.
All of the above checks have been made with the OU testing of five I c= 2 LBL
(Walton) detectors instrumented with 160 prototype amplifiers. The result is
that the detectors perform as theoretically expected. A discussion of the
basics, the amplifier design etc. is to be found in the 1981 Fermilab SSD
Workshop. I A description of the Fermilab H5 beam test (Hay-June, 1982) is
appended as a subappendix to this Appendix C.
In addition, OU and Ohio State have been cooperating on testing of 8 cm2
Centronic detectors (LAMPF beam test in progress, data taking to commence
Nov. 27--Dec. 15, 1982). In addition, six 25 cm2 United Detector Technology2
and six 2S cm Centronic's detectors square in cross-section built on three .
inch silicon disks SSD's should be in hand in two or three months: At that time
we will bench test them and subsequently beam test them. The ultimate twelve
sided regular polygonal 35 cm2 (on 3" Si disks) SSD's should be specified
and or dered early next year (with delivery expected late in the year)•
The charge collection results are shown in Figures C-1 and Figure C-2.
Plgure C-I shows the charge distribution of 46 GeV/c pions comparled to a Landau
distribution convoluted with a 0.25 £c noise distribution. The shape and the
magnitude of the charged collected (1.7 gc observed vs. 1.8 fc predicted ) agree
well. Figure C-2 shows 650 4eV/c protons in excellent agreement with the
theoretlcal shape (Landau convoluted with a momentum spread o£ 7q and a noise
of 0.2S fc). And the observed ratio of the pulse heights of 650 MeV/c protons to

550 MeV/c pions of 2.7 _ 0.2 agrees well with the theoretical ratio of 2.6.
Assuming that the spatial track point accuracy is given by the microstripe
spacing (pitch) divided by the_, the observed chisquare distribution for
the fits of straight through beam tracks for all 5, 4, and $ point 46 GeV/ce,
pion tracks are shown in Figure C-5. The average (x2/VOF) for this data is
1.2 _ 0.2. This implies that the accuracy is within (I0 _ 10)_ of the
theoretical pitch/_value including residual misalignments of the detector ar-
ray. The detector arr_saligned better than _ the pitch of 80 microns both
rotationally and translationally.
The transverse resolution of through beam tracks extrapolated from the SSD's
to the position of the veto counter is illustrated by the data in Figure C-4.
The veto would ideally cast a rectangular shadow on the downstream SSV's.
Beam divergence _orresponding to less than _ 80 _), the veto angular misalign-
merit (_ 60 _), multiple scattering in the copper target pieces ('40 _) and
the'errors in the fitted parameters (-20 _) put a slope on the edge of the
shadow of ($ II0 _). The data have a sloped box shape with a slope of "I00_.
However please note that the shadow edge goes from fully bright to fully
dark in one stripe width!
Finally multiprong interactions are observed in the SSD's. A typical three
track event is displayed in Figure C-5. The "dashes" represent stripes
connected to their own amplifiers. The letters of the alphabet represent
proportionally the charge deposited on the appropriate strip for those stripes
which have a signal larger than the pedestal plus three noise standard
deviations. The numbered lines represent the tracks. One sees that the three
tracks intersect nicely in a small region (triangle). The estimated vertex
errors from the fitted track parameters are _ .01 mm transversly and ± 0.4 mm
Iongitudally. The transverse errors are roughly independent of the event

details for vertices close to the detector array. The longitudal errors should
be linear in the pitch, the reciprocal of the (largest) opening angle of the
tracks_ and the distance from the SSD array to the interaction point (i.e.
vertex). Alternatively, the R_tS deviation of the pairwise intersections of
the tracks from the overall fitted vertex can be examined in lieu of the
calculated transverse and Iongitudal errors for events with 5 or more tracks.
The RbtS for the transverse direction averages 20 _, as compared to the track
point standard deviation of pitch/_]'_ = 25_ in this set up. The _ for the
Iongitudal direction depends strongly On the reciprocal of the opening angle
and averages 500_ for an opening angle of 50 mr. Monte Carlo shows that bottom
and charm decays from hadronic production at Tevatron energies will have an
average opening angle between pairs of 70mr. The actual SSD's for E-655
will have a pitch of 40_. Thus we expect an _ Iongitudal error in predicting
vertices in the emulsion of E-655 of 500/2/_'2 = 200_, as advertised in the
proposal (Appendix I, page 12 ).i
The above results show that SSD's perform as theoretically expected. We
have gained needed experience in SSD'sllow noise amplifiers, charge sharing,
and the diverse software required to analyze the data from such a system. The
- - SSD's are we1_ understood. Thus we can proceed to prosecute this experiment,
- having SSD technology well in hand.

4 and $ are all good to 1 stripe width (80_) over their 10 Cto 12) mm lengths:
A scan £or (interaction) event candidates (2 oF more tracks pointing to the
target with at least 5 points each) was mde. These tracks were fitted and a '
vertex found (XV and ZV}; an example was shown above in Fig. lb. Plots of XV
and ZV should show the height of the hole in the veto counter and the position of
the brass target pieces respectively. The resolution DXV is better than 0.02 nun.
The resolution DZV depends inversely on the opening angle of the tracks as well
as on how far upstream the event occurred (the average opening angles get smaller
_or interactions occurring farther upstream). Please remember that the maximum
" Opening angle is very small (averaging some 25 milli_adians (,less than 2 degreesI)).
• The distributions in XV and ZV are shown in Pig _. 3a and 3b. We see the VETO
hole (Pig. 3a) and the downstream brass pieces (Fig. 35] clearly. The upstream
brass pieces are not resolved ez_ (horizontal bars in Fig. 3b represent the
&ver_ge DZV at the ZV). With greater statistics in the final analysis o£ the
• total sample, we can cut on the larger opening angles (smaller DZV's] and see all
the brass pieces. The slopes o£ the edges of the XV and ZV peaks will give an
experimental measure of the resolution to compare to the (theoretical) calculated
values (such as those printed out in Fig. lb]'. At this level o£ statistics such
agreement appears to exist. -.

INTRODUCTIDN
Our present understanding of elementary particles is based on two principles, gauge lnvariance
and symmetry breaking. GauSs invariance is wen understood and has been explored by experiments
witness the successes of QED, QCDt and the standard electroweak theory. LEP will significantly
improve out knowledge in this direction. The meaning and the rules of symmetry breaking remain at
mystery. Symmetry bresklng is supposed to generate the tomes of all particles, including neutrinos.
The same phenomenon underlies CP violation, P violation, the 8eneration of weak mixing aneles, the
renormalisability and predictive power of gatqje theories, etc. The cornerstone of symmetry breaking
is the predlctim of the existence of new scalar particles. There m_y be Just one (the mgfrs particle
Ho) or many (the chareed and neutrel tightly bound pseud_calam of teclmicolo_ models). Contrery to"8augeland", "lcalorlaDd" remains essentially unezplored. Vast theoretical efforts of the past two
decades have not led to any scheme bearing the eppealin8 uniqueness of truth. Experiment, so fer, has
only given sn indirect clues the ratio of charged to neutral weak current amplitudes. It is clear that
one of the 8reatest hopes for LEP lies in the exploration of "scalarlend'. This requi_es detectors able
to do precise measurements of clean channels with mall brmschin 8 ratios. Detectors built with these
dem andinj characteristics in mind may also be the beat s_dted to des/with surprising results.DESIGN CONSIDlm_T/ON8

PAGE Zill. Resolution tests muth Germanate crystals (BGO) conducted with silicon diode
readouts to permit the operation of the crystals in mNjnetic fields. Tests were also made on a
sampling calorimeter consisting of teflon tubes filled with liquid scintillator sandwiched between lead
foils. Tests ca hackon calorimeters with proportional chamber readouts operating in a limited
streamer mode are being carried out.
iv. High precision large area (3 z 6 mz) drift chambers with control of systematic errors to

gas amplification typical of this type of chamber operating in a magnetic field. Tests were also done
on cross talk, on the systematic errors and resoluticzs, and on alignment with ionization lasers. About
200 such chambers have been used over the past few years at ISR and PETRA by some o! us. Valuable
experience has been gained in the construction and all_ment of these chambers.
Most of the results of these technical developments have been oe are being published in
• Nuclear Instruments and Method_ and other journals. These results yield sufficient information for us
to design a first generation LEP detector.
PROPOSIm DrflCCTOR
We propose to builds
- a large volume low field solenoid mqnet
- a small central tracking detector with very high track resolution
• - a high resolution e.m. calorimeter encapmdatiug the central detector
- a hackon calorimeter acting also as sue= filter
- high precision muon tracking chambm
- a tagging device for 2 photon processes acting also as a precision luminosity monitor
The detector is basically arranged in a cylindric geometry (octagonal shape} with fiat endcaps
as displayed in Fig.1.
We present a description of the components and describe brieily tests and alternative solutions
under study. .
A. Magnet _. Conventional raN|nets _e economically Limited to fields of about 0.S T, and
must be large to obtain good resolution. The total BL2 is 16 T. m 2, resulting in a BL2=7.2 T" m 2 for
the muon spectrometer. The absence of cryogenics, the simple construction (without nested pressure
vessels, heat shields, thin sWuts, etc.}, and the stut_iy, modifiable mechanical construction will allow
quick servicing of the experiment. Furthermore, a conventional magnet can be turned on and off
quickly. Fig. 2 summarizes further parameters of the magnet.
L Co___ We choose high cu_ent to minimize the number of Joints that will have to be made.
Exactly how the coil would be joined (by bolting, riveting, or welding) would depend mainly on the
time schedule and ventilation of the experimental area. The main enKineering problem will be to
reduce the fabrication and assembly cost. Fi_ 2 shows a coil design out of rectangular slabs.
li. Magnet Steel One could use truncated iron pyramids, cemented or tack welded together.
Construction would be like a building but with more iron and less concrete. One could also build the '
magnet out of rough--cut plate as shown in Fig. 2. Fig. 3 shows the assembly sequence. Such a
magnet can be constructed economically.
B. Vertex , Detector. It is well knowl that a minimum ionizing particle leaves along its track a
number of well separated ionization clusters, Just Like the individual bubbles in a bubble chamber.
The best position measurement of the charged particle is achieved when the position of all clusters is
determined. This is the principle of operation of the proposed time expansion chamber, ha a normal
-
D-4 PAGE 3
,. d3r,i_t chamber the sisxtal is _rmined by the arz4val of the fhrst ,on from several clusters left
by the incoming particle. The proposed time expansion chamber measures the coordinates of
individual clusters in the following ways
I) The drift field is separated from the gas ampUflcatlou region by a fine 8rid (see Fig.4a) and
the drift velocity is adjusted low enough (S IJ/ns) so that the anode signal can follow the duster
structure of the ionization {see Fig.4b).
Z) The dHfarence signal from two pick-up wires close to the anode wire 8ires the oeIKinale
coordinate of the cluster (see Fig.4c). Fig,4 shows a track making an angle 0 with respect to y to
Ulustrate the principle.
i. Layout. The detector is subdivided in to two concentric parts (Fig. 58vb)! the inneur one
from rI = 65 mm to rZ = 125 mm having 12 segments and an outer resion from r3 = IS0 mm to
r4 = S00 mm having 24 sesmants. The small dimension of the inner chamber insures that the requ/redmechanical precision can be reached. The main function of the inner chamber is to meam_e
secondary decay vertices. The outer chamber together with the high precision information of the
inner part of the detector 8ives a measurement of the momenta of the charged particles. "Pattern
recognition wires' are interleaved between sets of precision wires and are equipped with charge
divlsioa readout to measure the coordinate along the whre with a resolution of about I_ of the wire
lanztb.
li. Test_ Test measurements have concentrated on investigating the novel features I) and 2)
of the proposed chamber.
Feature I): In a test chamber the width of the anode siKnal from individual clusters produced
by soft X-ray was measured. It was found to be in affreement with the expectations based on
dHfusion data. Signals from two minimum ionizin8 t_acks close tosether are shown in Fig.6a. They
• can be separated if their mutual distance exceeds Ax • Z00 _t as expected from the diffusion data.
Feature Z): The dHference sisnal from two pick-up wires (200 _t away from each side of the
anode) foe a single cluster from X-rays was clipped to Z0 ns FWHM. The amplitude distributions for
ionization produced on three dHferont field lines and arriving under different angles a at the anode
are shown in Fig.6b. An angular resolution of Aa =S°FW_M is achieved, widch is better than needed
for the quoted position resolution.
These tests were made without magnetic field. Tests with a maEnetic field are planned. A
prototype foe a time expansion chamber is under development.
lti. Calibration. A calibration system will be used in which the position of the laser beam will be
stabilized with a precision of = 5 W. The beam can be displaced by movable reflectors controlled by alaser inte_ferometer.
iv. An Im1_oetant Imp_vement. Recently there has been rapid development of solid state
detectors. We present here as an improvement a solid state vertex detector (Fig. 7) to replace the
inner time expansion chamber. This vertex detector is based on the use of high spatial resolutions
microstrip devices. These devices will resolve 10 IJ rms., will separate particles more than Z.S mr
apart without rlSht-left ambiguities, and give two-dimensional coordinate readout at points radialJy
separated by a fraction of a millimeter.
The detector is ootasonal in shape with four double-s/ded readout planes per side, the inner
6 cm and the outer 11 cm from the beam. Slots are opened every 90 ° to permit extraction of leads
foe those strips runn/n 8 1_ansvewse to the beam. The construction details of a micros1_rip detector, in
-
D-5 PAGE 4
a beams-eye view, appea_Wig. 7. The stzlps are spaced at and using charge di_ision_'only every fifth strip need be sampled. Spatial resolution will be comparable to that obtained in
reading out every strip, provided amplifier noise is kept below 0.2 femtocoulombs rms. Fewer than
6_ of the tracks will have multiple Mlts in any IS0 M region. On-board multiplexing will reduce
external connections to about 1000 channels.
The solid state material will convert L2% of all T 's, or about 1/4 7 per event. The transverse
resolution per view at the vertex Klven by the solid state detectors is "
Ax = _ ( _ )2 + (15)21 1/2 microns (p in GeV/c)where the first contribution comes from multiple scattering and the second from intrinsic resolution.
The estimated contributiou to A x due to errors in momentum determination is less than 5 M. Usin 8 a
2 GeV/c track as typifying charm decays, we obtain Ax =43 1_ in each view. The error in decay
lensth for the typical charm decay would be roughly 80 IA. By using a 2a cut separating production
and decay vertices, and by demanding that the sum of decay charged-particle momenta be cc_dste_st
with a parent particle m'igdnating near the production vertex, we expect to resolve more than 1/3 of
all charm decays.
The detector also will enhance T lepton identification by providing a 2a me_ment in each
view for the typically 30 _i lepton impact parameter.
Present detectors _e unaffected by 1013 minimum-ionizing parttcles/cm 2, though receipt of
an equivalent number of heavily ionizing particles would be damaging. Below neutron threshold, such
detectors have survived 5 Megarem of X-radiation. P type silicon may increase radiation resistance
by another order of mqnitude.
. Intensive development work is underway and we plan to fit vertices in a Fermilab beam by Fall
1982 using large area devices.
C. CalortmetL zT" The proposed detector entails separate calorimetry for 7, e, and ha-drons.
i.. Elec_oma_etic Calorimeter. Fo_ the energy and position measurements, a high resolution
e.m. calortmete_ of Bismuth Germanate crystahs (BGO) would be the ideal choice because of its
excellent optical properties, high density, and insensitivity to humidity. This calorimeter consists of
approximately 12000 individual crystals of about 22 Xo pointing towards the interaction region. Thecrystals are arranged in a bsreel configuration with fiat endcaps (Fig. 8). The inner cavity has a
diameter of 100 cm and a length of 100 cm. The outer dimensions of the barrel ere 160 cm diameter
and 160 cm leas. This includes readout, thermal shielding, and support. The total volume of BGO willbe 1300-1400 liters.
We will use a silicon photodiode readout which works in a magnetic field. In order to obtain
information about the energy deposition along the crystal, we will mount an additional photodiode on
one crystal side, which will only see the last 1S Xo. This Is of importance for e/hadron discrimination '
where we will make use of both the longitudinal and transverse shower development. For isolated
showers we expect a spatial resolution of approximately o = 2 mm (depending on the energy), 'z,y
resulting in an ansular resolution of _0,4, = 4 mrad. Two neighboring showers can be separated downto a 50 mrad opening angle, thus limiting Y/w° discrimination to

will be cazried out at CERN and PETRA. Tests of the readout with standard commerdal lazEe area
silicon photodiodes resulted in a o noise =I.Z MeV and a sensibLUt7 of 850 photoelectrons per MeV
deposited energy.
. iii. Hadron calorimeter. The e,m. calorimete: is surrounded by a conventional hadron calori-
meter extending radially from 80 to Z00 cm (includ|ng support structure}. To provide a satisfactor7
muc_ filter a total of ? nuclear absorption lenr, hs _o are necessary (I _o e.m. calor/meter + 3,_5• Ohad:on calorimeter + ?,.$ _ additional absorber).O
We have chosen a sandwich calorimeter with ?,.$ cm Cu plates 12 mm apert intel_paced with I
cm tube chamber operating in the limited streamer mode (Fig.9). The signals sure branched off the
cathode planes etched in a pattern defining a tower geometry pointing to the interaction region. The
number of towers is not yet finalized but win range between 1000 and 3000 depending on spatial
_ resolution tests. The expected hadronlc ener_r resolution is o/E=TS%/_but might be furtherimproved when weighting the information of the high resolution e,m, calorimeter properly. To fuUy
: absorb hadrons, the calorimeter is backed b7 3 additional coppw plates each IZ cm thick (0.8 _o)interleaved with proportional counters to_ muon tzacking and detection of late developing had:onic
showe_.
•. The globa] eneriD' resolution of the combined calorimetezs is expected to be better than 7% at
the Zo_ thus allowing a very efficient and simple tzdlme: for • .e" =_-tl, tlation events or the detection
• .! of events with subtantial energy carried awa7 by neutrinos.
:: iv. _. The 4: calmdmeter a_angement together with a Z-photon tag&dng device _ g/re
us a very powerftd tool to discriminate between the =nnihilation-induced and two photon-induced
events. A compact tag&dng dev/ce will be made by extending a fine _ BGO calorimeter to angles
very close to the beam axis in a staggered a_angement along a flared beam pipe (First section shown
in Fig. 8). H large diameter superconducting IR quads arre available we plan to tag through the tint
]_ quad as dose as 8 mrad off the initial beam axis. This device a_tows us to tag a substantial
faction of Z _ processes and serves as a luminosity monitor. It also will detect some of the initial
state radiative p,rocesses where T quanta ere emitted dose to the beam dlrectlon. The device wiU betlm
sensitive down to photon energies of approximately 50 MeV with an intrinsic resolution better than
10 MeV and w£11have a spatial resolution of less than I ram. T-dust=7 tests show that BGO loses about
• I0_ of its scintillation efficiency alter X-ray exposu=e of 3 Megarem.
D. Option= a lead-Uq_d S.cintillator Electromagnetic Calorimeter. Shouid the required
amount of BGO not be available in time, a possible alternative is to use a liquid scintillator
calorimeter already developed for a dta_ct photon experiment at CERNI prototype tests were
successful The main advantages of this construction are high spatial resolut.ton, two-photon
. separation power, and low cost.
L La_ The proposed geometry is a bar:el 160 cm long, 100 cm inner diameter, and Z5 cm
, thick. The elements (teflon tubes) axe wound in two sets of helices, alternating rii_ht and left
windtng_, interspaced with sets of elements parallel to the axis to provide a third view (Fig. 10). The
teflon tubes, which extend outside of the fldudal volume as defined by the lead, are then bundled on
either side of the barrel and viewed by a long Light guide (several meters) which brings the Light out
of the magnetic field. This light guide is based on the same design as the calorimeter itself,
consisting of a Liquid with a high refraction index contained in a teflon tube of large diameter
(20-30 ram). One photomuitiplier is attached at the end of each Light guide, with a total of about
-
D-7 PAGE 6
4000 photom_tipliers and ADC's when both ends are . With this geome_-y, a
circular region of 50 cm radius is left free for the end caps, whose design is still under study.
iL Performance. Test results of the prototype showed that the performances of this design can
be predicted accurately by simulation. It is therefore relatively safe to expect:
a) Energy resolution. Two terms participate: the normal sampling resolution, which is here
about 0.14/,/_, and the residual resolution due to calorimeter inhomogeneity, calibration e__ors, etc.,
which we est/mate to be about ?.$%. The resolution is limited by the spread in the attenuation length
from element to element. Measurements have slow= that this attenuation length is reasonably large
(around 170 cm), With a spread oZ 1% for straight tubes.
b) Spatial resolution. A fit to the shower profile with 1 cm width elements has shown that
the position can be determined to a < 0.8 ram. We expect that with S mm width elements the
accuracy will be better than 0.S ram.
c) Two-shower separation. Fits on 16 GeV/c data with 1 cm width elements have shown
that two photons can be resolved ff their separation is larger than 16 ram. With 5 mm elements, we
expect to resolve two photons distant by more than 10 ram. At a distance of 50 cm, this allows a
positive identification of lr° 's with momenta smaller than 14 GeY/c.
E. Mu..onChambers-
i. Layout. It is presented in Fig. l_b. The design is optimized for 1.25% mass resolution at
I00 GeV dimuon mass. Three stacks of ¢Iadft chambers measure the sagitta of the magnetic bend to
1.8%_ The wires ue 6 m long, supported in the middle, and parallel to the 4.5 kgamm field. To,.improve the resolution each chamber contains matched clusters of N wires.
• The accuracy of the chambers relies on the precise relative positioning of the clustered wires.
This is achieved by pulling all wires over an optically fiat (8 _) glass edge. The glass pieces are
mounted on the aluminum end plates which are precision machined on a computerized lathe. They are
identical foe all chambers and can be precisely checked by overlay. For simplicity of const_tction
and surveying, the chambers are boxes of uniform length. Honeycomb walls keep multiple scattering
small Thin layers of superinsulation provide thermal shielding.
Fig. 11 gives details of the "cluster chamber." Electrostatic and mechanical details are
derived from a 5.4 m long module with 9 wires operating in magnetic field, and from a 96-wire
chamber built by NIKHEF. Both were extensively tested in the last two years in the AGS-BNL 6 GeVproton test beam.
i/. Technic_ Developments , and Test Results: The two essential chamber features are the
performance of long wires with single-ended elec_onic readout in magnetic field and the improve-
memt of the track position as 1/V_. Fig. 12 shows the 5.4 m long test chamber (A) located
horizontally in a solenoid, and in front of it another chamber (B) mounted vertically,
(a) A-Chamber Results: Fig. 13a gives results for a 63:37% mixture of Argon: Ethane at "
atmospheric pressm.e. At B = 0 with l.Z KV/cm drHt field we measttre a saturated drift velocity of
§.I cm/tl s. At B = 0.5 T the electrons drift under the influence of the Lorentz force with an angle at "
towards the wires. The diagram of displacement x versus delay (Fig. 13a) yields the projected driftvelocity from which we determine ct = 18°.
Comparing the results of the resolution measurements shows that each individual wire provides
a position resolution o = 180 ,. This is obtained by comparing a given wire information with the
fitted information from the other $ wires. Contributions from knock on elecl_ons (tail of Landau
distribution) can be seen in Fig. 13b. Applyin 8 a loose cut equivalent to the lines in Fig. 13b excludes
-
I D-8 th_ PAGE 7" _bss than 10% of the tndivi wire measurements and improves resolution to O= 130 (180) tl for
drift distances of 0.6 (S.0) cm respectively.
(b) B-Chamber Resuits: Measurements in the BNL test beam are shown in Fig. 13c. The
paraliel tracks were analyzed in the following manner: A straight line wu fitted through the first
and last Z5 points in the chamber; 36 wires in the center of the chamber were used to study the
deviation _ obs and the resolution a with respect to the straight Line fit; average points were
calcu/•ted from groups of 1, 4, 9, 16, ZS, and 36 wires;, the distance _obs was determined for theaverage points of the groups chosen with respect to the straight Line. We show in Fig. 13c the
accuracy oread (O2ob s = O2real + O2Line) u a function of the number of measuring wires for tracksparallel to the sense wires. The observed II v_ law agnes with Glueckstern's formula. For 36 wiz_s,
accuracies of ZS tt azl reached ; Since no cuts were aFpl/ed these values are very conservative.
Lii. Alignment: UV laser beams can simulate straight (p = m) tracks in drift chambers operating
• .: in a magnetic field. Fig. Ib shows a provision for linking atl chamber layers with small gas tubes
without windows to enable precise relative alignment with survey optical instruments and ionizing
i Lusts. Fig. 14a) shows the profile of a high intensity N2 laser beam as recorded by one wire. In thismeasurement , the bum was at S0 mm pars/lel to the 96 sense wires. The centroid of the
" distribution can be determined to < 15 ¼, which is more than sufficient. Fig. 14b) shows a schematic- r
of • chambe comparable in size to those of Fig. I. At each of the 4 corners and the two edges of the
i. middle support, a Charge Coupled D...evice with ZS6 cells of 13 x 13 ¼2 size detects relative motion• o
• against a stress-free reference system carrying focused light sources. The digdts/ information is
_. insensitive to temperature, pressure, etc., and is recorded on disk calibration files. After extended
running, motor drive= wedges operating in fields up to 0.S T may execute a computer controlled
compensation. The top graph of Fig. 14c} shows the long term warping of the frame from the
complicated stress tensor. As seen on the bottom graph the compensation confines all deviations to
.. less than 13 ¼, keeping the system reproducible over long periods of time.
iv. Gases: Extensive studies of gas mixtures have been carried out in magnetic field and the
results appear in Fig. 1S.
In summary, these tests have shown:
a) Long wires are stable and work with good resolution o = 200 IAat B =0.S T. Thereforeu.
250 _ is a reasonable value for a system.
. b) The I/,f'_rule works down to 2S tt.
c) Long term mechanical reproducibility is demonstrated. Catlbration by ionizing laser iswithin reach.
F. Experimental Area. An experimental hail able to accomodate the proposed magnet should
differ from the standard defined at the Villers meeting by having its ma/n axis parallel to the beam
and providing wide access to at least cue, and prefeably both, end caps. This could for example be
. achieved by rotating one of the hafts.
The insta£1ation of the magnet, or for that matter its dismantling, will require many months,
but we plan a modular structure permitting quick instailaticu and removal of inside components. It
must be noted that the proposed magnet could accomodate almost any alternate detector and the
latter could replace ours in a matte of weeks.4. -
G. Data Analysis. Many members of our collaboration have been engaged in • • physics
experiments (MARK J, Crystal Ball, LENA, CUSP) using calorimetric techniques (photons, electrons,

hadrons). Others have beq_engaged in studying lepton pair a_charm production with protonaccelerators and storage rings. This experience will be used to develop our existing software into on-
line and off-fine programs for the proposed detector. We estimate that 3 existing VAX computers in
combination with dedicated microprocessors, together with the large computer centers in our home
institutions, will be used for our initial program. The requdrements for CERN computer time and
computer-finks will be submitted at a later date.

institutions about participat/on.
UNIQUE FEATURES OF THE DETECTOR
This detector is optimised for measm_g photons and leptomk It is ideal to search for rare
decays involving leptons and to do gamma ray spectroscopy down to 50 MeV. Specifically it has the
following unique features_
,%. The Vertex Chamber. The vertex chamber will have a 30 ¼ resolution. One obtains,, _ ,; , J
AP/P =4/9 + 0.5 pZ (%_. The pod double track resolution (=0.Smm), the small volume, and the low
field make the pattern recognition and track reconstruction tasks relatively easier than a high field..
_ large volume solenoid design. Due to the small volume and low field, the curlup momentum is
p = 21 MeV, whereas for a magnet with a r=lS0 cm and B=15 kganss, the critical momentum is worse
by more than an order of magnitude. The vertex chamber will measure the charge of the particles up• 'i
: to 50 GeV/c and allow us to study the more conventional charged hadron spectroscopy.
. B_The Calorimeter. The energy resolution of BGO is A_E=, _ 0.3) %. For hadrons we0.75 ...... _ /'E'+
have _-_E ._ _ . The independent momentum measurement of charged particles in the centraldetector will simplify the calibratims of the e.m. calorimeter and of the hadron calorimeter for at
least 70% of 4w. For B < .8 particle identification is possible by measuring the momentum with the
vertex chamber and cLE/dxwith the first section of the BGO.
Electrons are detected above 300 MeV over 98% of 4 w (99.9% with reduced efficiency).
The e/h rejection ratio will be better than 1/1000 below a few GeV due to (i) double energy
measurement, (ii} shower depth samp/b_, and possibly (iii) dE/dx information from current division
readout of the inner detector. At I GeV Ap/p = 3% from vertex chamber including multiple
- scattering and is = 1% from BGO. The dE/dx separation is better than 40. At high energies the e/h
rejection ratio will be better than l/S00 due to (i) longitudinal shower sampling, (ii) transverse
shower sampling and (iii) hadron calorimeter veto.
The compact central detector system allows efficient shielding against beam-gas interactions
or synchrotron radiation. It will also be possible to position the IR-quads as close as £220(170) cm to
the interaction point. With large diameter superconducting quads one is able to tag as close as •
8 mrad off the initial beam axis. The tagging device will allow us to further purify annihilation
events from the much more abundant Zy events and tag a substantial fraction of radiative processes. •
C. Muon Chamb..ers. Muens above 1.8 GeV are measured over 75% of 4_. The detector has a
small decay volume. The vertex chamber is able to detect very small decay kinks. The calorimeter
acts as a muon filter. For muon momenta of 1.8-10 GeV, the detector has redundant information due
to double momentum measurement in the central and outside tracking chambers. The background
from decay and punch through is estimated to be = 10"3.
For the calculation of momentum resolution we assume a chamber resolution of ZS0 Wper plane and
-
D-10 PAGE 9
.. that each chamber will on_ average have two bad measu_em, due to 6-rays, background, or
degraded resolution due to distorted electric field. The 16-Z4--16 sampling measurements in the

true width of a narrow resonance (tt, Z°) to obtain • superior sigrnd to background ratio. This is
particularly important because the radiative effects distort the upper part of the Z° spectrum by
about a factor of ten. Precise me•statements on final state particles will greatly enhance the
sensitivity of new particles searches and increase the accuracy of Z ° mass, width and charge
asymmetry measurements. The good resolution on leptons will enable us to identify events of the type
e+e "_"Z°+T on an event by event basis by measuring Z°_ £+2," Without accurate final state particle
measurements, radiative corrections can be used but will not improve the signal to continuum ratio.
F. Flexibility.. The modularity and the compactness of the central detector will allow us to
modify it quickly for unexpected requdrements and will permit us to test substantial puts of the
equipment before the start of LEP.
PHYSICS
:. As noted before, in the past major discoveries at particles •cceleraton were totally
• unpredtcted •t the time of their construction, and furthermore some of the present questions may be
resolved in the next few years. Therefore we list only • few examples to identify the unique features• .:
of our detector.•
A. Sintle lepto n states= Inclusive lepton spectra may yield information on new flavors, new
leptons, supersymmetrlc partners of elecwons, muou, and taus, excited leptons ¼=_' ¼ + T and
_ • s ,-e +T, and lonK-ltved lepton8. In Fig. 16 we show an example of our ability to detect naked
flavor from Z°4" t_ at Z0 < Mt < 45 GeV. The difference between the zero-crossing points of the ¼ _Iand
charge asymmetry values is a direct meamlrement of sin2ew, free from corrections such asradiative effects.
B. SinRle photonsc The richness of inclusive photon study at resonance has been very
impressively demonstrated by the Crystal Ball detector. We can use similar techniques here at the
mass of Z° cr of • new onium stat(_ for example by looking for the monochromatic photons from
i) ZoO' Ho . T, which is suppressed in standard model with BR = Z.4 x 10-0 corresponding to
Z4 monochromatic high energy photon events for 107 Z° produced. The main background is themm
continuous spectrum from Z°_" QOT where the photons tend to be close to the direction of one of the
O's.
ti) Topontum t_ _' HOT, which has • branching ratio = 1% for MHO < 0.9 Mt_. The backgroundagain is the continuous spectrum from t_ _'Y a and is of magnitude similar to the signal beforekinematic outs.
In either case the signal to background ratio is proportional to the energy and spatial resolution of the
photon. With AF..y/Ey < 1% and spatial resolution of 2 ram, we estimate the background to be less
than 50% of the Z° _. Ho + Y and neglisible for the case of t_ "_Ho + Y f_ MHo < 0.9 Mt_. Thus theproposed detector has a chance of discovering such particles in these channels.
(iii) Neutrino counting through reaction e+e" * Z°+ T'_ if LEP tuns slightly higher than the
Z° peak.

its mass, width, and charge asymmetry parameters (Fig. 17).
(ii) The precise measurement of the width gives information on the number of neutrinos. With
10 S events and A M/M 8 1%, we expect A r = 40 MeV, which is to be compared with the v partial
width of _vo _ 180 MeV for each flavor.(ili) Precise measurement of onia leptontc decay.

a family of particles T++, T., and T° which decays into _ I_, IJT, or Tr predominantly. For example,T++we have Z° _ + T'"
