summary and outlook

measurement and reconstructiongain simulationimpact on dE/dx, reconstruction and resolution

motivation for studies of impact on dE/dx

not width of gain distribution but stability of mean interesting

width can be taken into account with calibration

analyses with cuts on dE/dx need stability of gain for differenttracks

example: discrimination of pions and Kaons over dE/dx verysensitive

gain mean variation at most 0.05 to 0.1 sigma(LEP experience)→ 0.25% - 0.5% for ILD with 5% dE/dx resolution

⇒ studies of stability for different regions

open questions

variations are in critical region for dE/dx measurements

do longer tracks - over more GEMs - see smaller variations?

is bending stable over time?⇒ measurements with applied voltage

influence of grid and upright position?⇒ additional measurements

calibration strategies?

impact on track reconstruction and point resolution?

summary and outlook

bending of GEMs influences dE/dx measurement

stability of reconstruction and resolution will be tested viasimulation

additional experimental test interesting - not in scope of thisthesis

time dependence - voltageupright positionimprovement through grid

grid has a small, tolerable influence

hit efficiency above 85%

more sophisticated studies will follow

impact on track efficiency and resolution will be checked
