Particle acceleration and detection

Particle Creation

bull Starting with hydrogen gas scientists create proton beams

bull They strip off the electrons from H atomsbull They divert a portion of the proton beams to

create antiprotonsbull Once they have accumulated enough

antiprotons they load them into the Tevatron

Particle Detection

ndash Measure as many (all) properties of the particles as possibleMass charge momentum spin energy lifetime hellip

ndash Reconstruct fundamental reaction mechanism Weak decay strong interaction hellipndash Often we can only lsquoseersquo the end products of the reaction but not the reaction itself for example when

particles decay rapidly

bull 1048708End result is the validation or falsification of a theorybull 1048708Purpose is to measure as many properties of all particles as possible

bull Particles are detected through their interaction with matter Many different physical processes involved mainly of electromagnetic nature

bull Ultimately we will always observe ionization and excitation of matter

Particle Detection

1) Concentrate energy on particles (accelerator)

2) Collideparticles (recreate conditions after Big Bang)bullCollide two particlebeamshead on bullCollideparticle beam withstationary target

3) Identify created particles in Detector(search for new clues)

Generally two types of detectors bull Collider detectors for colliding

beam experimentsbull Fixed target experiments for

Particle beams from accelerator on stationary target

Natural sources of particles cosmic rays neutrinos from the sun hellip

Fermilab Detectors

bull Fermilab has two detectorsndash CDFndash DOslash

(CDF)

DOslash detector

Introduction to the SRCH Detector

subsystems their functions and performance

Simulated Detector for project

BeamPipe

The accelerator provides a symmetric electron-positron beam

Collisions will occasionally yield new particles

We hope to observe the decay of these new particles

SiliconTracker

Detection begins in the silicon tracker A magnetic field will bend charged particles

We measure the trajectory of charged particles

ElectromagneticCalorimeter

Particles that interact electromagnetically will deposit energy here

The calorimeter contains 20 layers of active material separated by lead sheets

This is a sampling detector

HadronicCalorimeter

Particles that interact strongly will deposit energy here

The calorimeter contains 20 layers of active material separated by lead sheets

This is a sampling detector

MuonCatcher

Muons interact very weakly We need a system that detects muons from any decays

This is a scintillating detector

SRCH provides measurements ofmomentum and energy of all charged decay products

MuonCatcher

Muons interact very weakly We need a system that detects muons from any decays

This is a scintillating detector

SRCH provides measurements ofmomentum and energy of all charged decay products
