  1. C B M Fast TRD - R&D Status •Introduction • Short review - First HCRTRD prototypes: - MWPC – w & w/o drift zone - GEM - Second HCRTRD prototypes - MWPC – double sided - GEM Counting rate performance: • charge • pulse height • position resolution • e/ discrimination • Third HCRTRD prototype – real size cell • Conclusions Mihai Petrovici, CBM-Meeting, Feb. 26-29, 2008, GSI

  2. Baseline Detector Setup Tracking: STS, TRD Vertexing: STS Hadron ID : TOF Electron ID: RICH, TRD, ECAL γ, n: ECAL The Challenge: • very rare probesin Au+Au at reaction rates up to 107events/sec • ~ 1000 charged particle/event CBM - TRD Counting rates ~ 105 part/sec/cm2 High granularity - rej (at 90% e efficiency) > 100

  3. First HCRTRD - prototype • type: radiator + MWPC • anode-cathode distance–3 mm • 2.5 mm anode pitch • - maximum drift time ~ 100 ns • - channel size ~ 6 cm2 1 GeV/c UA = 1900 V Xe,CO2 (15%) Rohacell

  7. Rate Dependence for 300 Tilted Chamber 1800 V 1.2 % 1.2 % 1.2 % 1.2 % 2.5 % 1.2 % 3.4 % 1.2 %

  8. Rate Dependence of the Position Resolution

  10. e/discriminationperformance Xe,CO2(15%) 1 GeV/c,UA = 1900 V 1.5 GeV/c,UA = 1800 V 1.5 GeV/c,UA = 1800 V

  12. e/ discrimination – counting rate dependence e 

  13. Conclusions •TRD based on compact geometry MWPC works up to > 2•105 particles/cm2/sec with negligible change of pulse height or charge (~2-3%) •The position resolution at low rate is ~160 m; the observed degradation is ~20 m at 2•105 particles/cm2/sec; •A double-sided pad readout electrode brings the performance of these TRD at a  rejection factor of ~200 for 6 layers using appropriate foil stack radiator.  • The solution for: • high counting rate • high granularity • high e/ rejection factor • minimum material budget • minimum electronic channels
