Detector

• Results of tests of subsets of the 10+5 SICCAS produced crystals (2014) at Giessen, BNL, and Caltech

• Results of crystals 2, 3, 6, 8, and 9 from Giessen:

• Absorption coefficient
• Transmittance
• Light Yields: LY_2, LY_3, LY_6, LY_8, LY_9

• Results for crystals 5 and 11 from Caltech and comparison to CMS crystal performance
• Results for crystals 7 and 15 from BNL

• PMT specs: Hamamatsu R4125, 19mm diameter, gain is about 8.7E+5 at 1.5kV max. anode voltage and rise time 2.5ns. This PMT was also used in Primex and we have designed a new active voltage divider that improves the performance of the PMT by a factor of 25. See the report at the 2012 IEEE NSS/MIC/RTSD conference by V. Popov and H. Mkrtchyan.

Dose rate estimations for PbWO4 detector at 4m from target, at 1uA, and for a 10-cm long target

Scattering Chamber Information:

• outer diameter = 45 inches

• inner diameter = 43.125 inches

• distance beam line to SHMS window = 1.25 inches

So for a point target, the minimum angle is 58 mr or 3.4 degrees. For an extended target you will need to adjust, it becomes about 4 degree for a 15 cm target. So assume 3.5 degrees as rough number.

Magnet

• GEANT4 code for background simulations

• README instructions for using the code (Gabi)

• Sweeping magnet design for NPS experiments (updated version from 2 August 2015).

• Compared to the original version slide #14 has been corrected: The beam deflection angle is much smaller than was shown before and also added a comment about the downstream shielding of the beam line. The original version from 30 July 2015 can be found here

• Field map for the Small Angle Magnet

• The coordinate system is based on the magnet, so the target center has the coordinates x = 15 cm, y = 0 cm, z = 157 cm. The beam going to the negative z, positive x at the angle -2.2 degree. The center of the calorimeter is in the direction +4.1 degree from the target.
