Study by diploma student Ralph Dollan on Xtal Calorimeter with Fiber Readout. Features segments of heavy crystals with individual fiber readout for optimal energy resolution, timing, and segmentation. Testing setup includes Cosmic Telescope and Ru-Source Calibration for PMTs. Evaluates light yield comparison between fiber and direct readout methods with consideration for cross talk. Future plans for cross talk studies, Čerenkov radiator readout, APD readout trials, and array PMT calibration.

Xtal Calorimeter with Fiber Readout • work by diploma student • Ralph Dollan (HU) LumiCal BeamCal Achim Stahl DESY Zeuthen 10.Oct.2003
Detector Concept segments of heavy crystals individual fiber readout for every crystal segment • Expectations: • excellent energy resolution • excellent timing • reasonable segmentation • small Molière radius (?)
Test Setup Cosmic Telescope Alternative: Ru-Source
Calibration of PMTs LED PMT
Lightyield Measure Lightyield with plastic scintillator Compare fiber readout vs. direct readout
Lightyield fiber readout direct readout ~ 25 %
Cross Talk fiber painted with black paint How much light do fibers see from other crystals
Cross Talk cosmics ? but ….
Outlook but..… Ralph will finish end of this year no further man-power available • complete cross talk studies • test fiber readout for Čerenkov radiator • investigate heavy crystals • try APD readout • build larger array
