- AGENDA
- -1a.Formation of the LCTPC/LP collaboration
- -The proposed structure is shown on the
next foil 4. - -The Collaboration-Board (CB) of group
representatives is complete for the groups on
foil 5 - -Names of both CB and TB are shown on
foils 6,7. - -A proposal by the interim-SP for the next
steps was sent to the CB and TB and the first
collaboration phonemeeting was held on
20.09.2006 - -There it was said that the structure
should be kept simple and that the collaboration
must be open to new groups. - -It was decided that each region
independently select a Regional Coordinator, via
vote by that regions CB members, to replace the
interim SPs, and that the 3 Regional Coordinators
would choose a chairperson who is the sole
Spokesperson. - -This should take place a.s.a.p. so
that the organization process can proceed without
delay the interim-SPs will organize the
selection process for their region. -
4Formation of the LCTPC/LP collaboration The
proposal is to have 1)Three coordinators, one
chosen by each region. These spokespersons
(SP) coordinate the work of the following two
boards 2)The collaboration board (CB),
consisting of one representative from each group
or set of groups (the group leader, principle
investigator or other chosen member). Each CB
member looks after the resources for its
group(s) (money and people). 3)The technical
board (TB), consisting of the existing
workpackage (WP) conveners. The TB will ensure
the technical integrity of their WP
and compatibility with other WPs while
maintaining close contact with the collaboration.
This structure now exists. 1) We are three
interim coordinators and are to be replaced by
chosen ones in the course of this formation
phase. 2) The CB is (almost) complete. 3) The
workpackages and WP conveners were identified
during the first half of this year. The names of
CB and TB members are listed in the next slide.

28- Some features
- Zigzag structure prevented loss of tracks gt ?22
- Sectors mounted from inside using a handling
tool - to minimize the dead space between sectors.
This - straight-forward operation which was
performed - at least 30 times during the lifetime of
Aleph. - Alu sandwich structure stiff, lightweight to
- - contain 7mb overpressure
- - provide forced-air thermal insulation
- between electronics and TPC volume
- Water cooling of 1kW electronics/side in addition
- - 22K channels per side
- Combination water/air cooling blocked all heat to
TPC - Overall thickness 25Xo (average) w/o cables
- Bending of endplate
- 20 micrometers due to 7mb overpressure
- 5 micrometers due to wire tension
29 RD Planning
- 1) Demonstration phase
- Continue work with small prototypes on mapping
out parameter space, understanding resolution,
etc, to prove feasibility of an MPGD TPC. For
CMOS/Si-based ideas this will include a basic
proof-of-principle. - 2) Consolidation phase
- Build and operate the LP, large prototype, (Ø
75cm, drift 100cm), with EUDET infrastructure
as pedestal, to test manufacturing techniques
for MPGD endplates, fieldcage and electronics.
Design is starting---building and testing will
take another 3 years. - 3) Design phase
- After phase 2, the decision as to which endplate
technology to use for the LC TPC would be taken
and final design started.
