• Engineering and design staff largely at BNL– Draws on staff in Physics Dept., Collider-Accelerator Dept., Superconducting Magnet Div.
and Instrumentation Div.
– Major contribution from Electrical Engineering/Design staff at Columbia/Nevis Lab on the Calorimeter Digitizers and MBD FEE
8sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX Labor Resources• Engineering and Designer effort for new detectors largely at BNL
• Technician staff for new detector construction largely at Universities
– TPC: Stony Brook for main chamber; Wayne State/Vanderbilt/Weizmann for readout chamber construction
– EMCal: Illinois for Blocks; Michigan for optical sensor testing
– HCal: Iowa State for sector construction; Georgia State for scintillator tile preparation
– All the above efforts make use of many kilo-hours of student labor
– INTT at RIKEN; MVTX at LBNL/LANL/MIT for ladder and carbon-fiber work
– Assembly of heavy items, specifically EMCal Module and Sector construction and HCal sector handling, to be done at BNL by BNL staff
– Testing of assembled units, including testing with final FEE, largely performed by University groups with observation/participation by BNL research staff
– Over 50 person-years of University staff in the labor total9sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX Labor Resources• Engineering and Design for INTT at RIKEN; Engineering and Design for MVTX at
LBNL, LANL, MIT
• Engineering and Design for new Electronics, DAQ, Triggering and Timing systems largely at BNL, with notable contribution from Columbia/Nevis Lab on Calorimeter Digitizers and MBD FEE
• Electronics, DAQ, Triggering and Timing construction largely depends on commercial vendors for components, boards and assembly thereof
– Testing largely done at BNL by technical staff under engineer’s supervision
– Testing of mating to detector also involves staff that constructed detector
– Columbia/Nevis Labs supplies testing staff for, and performs tests on, all those items which they are supplying to sPHENIX
10sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX Labor Resources• Firmware (plenty of that) relies on BNL and University professional and
research staff working in collaboration
• Mechanical and electrical engineering and design centered at BNL for Superconducting magnet, Cradle/Carriage, Magnet steel, Infrastructure upgrades and Installation
• Installation phase is led by BNL staff (Physics, C-AD)
• Cabling and later commissioning work depends heavily upon contributions from University staff as well as staff from other Laboratories: RIKEN/LANL/LBNL
11sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX Internal Reviews• All construction, be it detector, electronics, DAQ, trigger, timing or support
services, must undergo a series of reviews
– Design: conceptual, intermediate, final as needed
– Performance evaluation after prototyping steps (1 or more)
– Procurement readiness
– ESHQ check
• A series of reviews of the conceptual designs has been held
– Reports on the Indico sites of the various reviews
– Reviews of detectors, detector electronics and DAQ/trigger/timing have been held
– These outputs informed construction of the Resource Loaded Schedule, in particular prototyping and testing that should be done prior to proceeding with Production effort
12sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX Prototyping• All detector construction proceeds through a series of prototypes
• This is a major component of the effort to identify and remove risks associated with building a series of new detectors and electronics and getting it all to work together
– These include in-beam tests (multiple such tests for the calorimeters)
– These include coupling of detectors and Front End Electronics
– These will include prototyping and testing of the one custom Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) for the Time Projection Chamber (the SAMPA ASIC)
– These include coupling of FEE and Digitizers to elements of the DAQ system
• The DAQ makes use of the existing and long-used Data-Collection Modules-2 from PHENIX
– Timing and Trigger prototyping is underway
13sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX QA Plans• All construction, be it detector, electronics, DAQ, trigger, timing or support
services, must create and submit a QA plan
• sPHENIX has created a master QA plan
– C. Gortakowski’s talk, Project Management Breakout Session
• Detector and electronics efforts to submit a Detector-Specific QA Plan
– Address materials qualifications and inspections, procedures to be followed, tests during construction, acceptance testing after construction, qualification and training of personnel, travelers, record-keeping, submission of final records to BNL
– First such plan has been prepared and accepted for EMCal Block production at U. Illinois, as that effort is on the critical path
– Second such plan submitted by Georgia State U for HCal Scintillating Tile testing
– Next up from U Michigan for SiPM testing14sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
sPHENIX MOAs• The sPHENIX Project plans for effort by personnel from the Physics Department, the
Collider-Accelerator Department, the Superconducting Magnet Division, and the Instrumentation Division at BNL
• Memoranda of Agreement between sPHENIX and these organizations address the activities and personnel involved, and the amounts and duration of the planned effort
• Four of five are complete:
– Physics
– C-AD for Magnet and Carriage/Cradle
– Instrumentation for TPC and DAQ
– SMD for Engineering/FEA
• Fifth between C-AD and sPHENIX for Infrastructure improvements in draft
15sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
WBS Schedule Construction• A Resource Loaded Schedule has been developed for sPHENIX
• All tasks have resources, durations & links determined
• MIE (1.x) and Silicon (3.x) Level 2 WBS are largely self-contained and consist of a prototype, preproduction prototype and fabrication sequence. Key predecessor links are to funding authorizations. These WBS typically end on a completion milestone and a link out to Installation (WBS 2.05)
• OHCal (WBS 1.04) necessarily has a dependency on delivery schedule for the Barrel Flux Return Steel (WBS 2.03.03)
• Infrastructure/Facilities (2.x) for SC Magnet (WBS 2.02), Cradle/Carriage and Steel fabrications(WBS 2.03) have major design/engineering/review stages followed by Procurement Readiness Review and bid tenders
– Three tenders are above $1M, with one awarded
– Several tenders above $100K16sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
WBS Schedule Construction• Critical path for (1.x) is EMCal construction (WBS 1.03) and Calorimeter
Electronics (WBS 1.05) as expected due to:
– complexity and high element count (over 5000) of the EMCal (WBS 1.03)
– number of photo-sensors (over 80,000 SiPMs) to be mounted to circuit cards (WBS 1.05)
– Number of different types of circuit boards which must interoperate for Calorimeter Electronics (WBS 1.05.02)
• Critical path for (2.x) is Cradle/Carriage
– This is central to installation sequence and must be placed first on the existing track system in Bldg. 1008
• All detectors (1.x, 3.x) have hand-offs to Installation (WBS 2.05)

– Manager assigned to each Recommendation,
– Status, Response & any attachment, Date of Update
• Tracking all Recommendations using this RTS24sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #2• “Is the scope of each project sufficiently defined to support approval of PD-2
and PD-3? Are the specifications, designs and execution plans likely to meet the technical performance requirements? Are the interfaces with other projects properly understood and documented?”
• Comments to Charge Element– All detectors are based on known technologies with some novel configuration
– Revised ASIC for TPC (the SAMPA chip) is a modest alteration of a working device
– TPC, EMCal, and HCal have been through one or more round of prototyping (WBS 1.02, 1.03, 1.04) –results to date are positive – “we could build this design”
• includes tests of operating prototypes in a test beam of particles at FNAL
• gives confidence the designs are mature, and time-to-fabricate/procure the needed parts has been experienced
– Calorimeter Electronics (WBS 1.05) and DAQ & Trigger (WBS 1.06) are based on PHENIX electronics
• built by same groups; WBS 1.05 boards used successfully in test beam run; BOE include detailed Bills of Materials
• has similar level of channel count, complexity, and required performance as PHENIX
– Min Bias Detector (WBS 1.07) is an existing detector being refurbished with new electronics
25sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #2• “Is the scope of each project sufficiently defined to support approval of PD-2
and PD-3? Are the specifications, designs and execution plans likely to meet the technical performance requirements? Are the interfaces with other projects properly understood and documented?”
• Further Comments to Charge Element– INTT sensing elements employs a familiar design for silicon-strips (WBS 3.01)
– INTT readout electronics re-uses the successful FEE from PHENIX FVTX
– MVTX employs MAPS ladders of proven ALICE design; carbon-fiber supports from proven shop (WBS 3.02)
– INTT and MVTX have tested prototype ladders in-beam
– SC Magnet has been tested to full current; cryo interfaces build on RHIC experience
– Cradle/Carriage inherits from similar designs and follows similar analysis methodology
– Barrel Steel sectors are arriving and have been test-fit with final-sized active OHCal elements
– Interface control documents have been prepared, reviewed and recorded
– Full 3-D models of sPHENIX are being built and examined for installation and fit-up
– Cables, services, LV & bias HV, power routing are defined
26sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #4• “Is there a capable team in place to effectively manage the two projects as
defined in the approved baselines for each? Does the management team have the resources and management tools necessary for the size and complexity of this overall effort?”
• Comments to Charge Element– Management team is staffed and experienced on projects of similar scale
– L2/CAM and L3 managers identified and at work leading current prototyping/fabrication efforts
– Risk Registry is developed and populated in continuing consultation with L2, L3 and engineering staff
– Plans for Procurement are developed and being used. EVMS tracking of items has commenced.
– Prototyping series for various detectors have been defined and are being executed, generating feedback on resources required and schedule achievable
– Management protocols (design review, ESHQ reviews, procurement readiness reviews, QA plans, MoA, etc.) have been put in place and are being used.
27sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #4• “Is there a capable team in place to effectively manage the two projects as
defined in the approved baselines for each? Does the management team have the resources and management tools necessary for the size and complexity of this overall effort?”
• Further Comments to Charge Element
– We believe a comprehensive suite of management tools are in place and now being exercised• Reviews
• Prototyping series, initial short series-production (“PreProduction”)
• QA plans, including specific ones for individual detectors
• MoA
• Risk Registry and plans to review/update/retire risks on regular basis
• Recommendation Tracking System
• Resource Loaded Schedule (“P6”)– exercising this to record progress has begun (EVMS)
28sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #5• “Are the cost and schedule estimates for each project credible and adequately
detailed to establish their respective baselines? Do they include adequate scope, cost and schedule contingency?”
• Comments to Charge Element
– All subsystems have developed a BOE and a RLS for their area
– Activity descriptions are broken down to “$1K/1-day” range, as appropriate
– These have been reviewed and defended internally
– Control-point reviews are built in to the schedule, and require results from prototyping, chain-tests, FEA analyses, and ESHQ questions as appropriate
– Links among the subsystems have been added to develop the overall schedule, in particular the Installation schedule
– Estimate uncertainties are assigned to individual activities and estimates
– Risk Registry is used to assign further cost and schedule contingency29sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Review Charge Element #5• “Are the cost and schedule estimates for each project credible and adequately
detailed to establish their respective baselines? Do they include adequate scope, cost and schedule contingency?”
• Further Comments to Charge Element– Four Long Lead Procurements have been identified
– Three are associated with the EMCal and associated electronics production, which form the Critical path
• Scintillating Fibers for EMCal - placed
• Tungsten (W) Powder for EMCal – ready for down-select and procurement
• Silicon PhotoMultipliers (SiPMs) to readout the EMCal - placed
– Fourth involves a non-US vendor which needs to scale up rate of production to meet sPHENIX’s schedule
• Scintillating Tiles for Outer Hadron Calorimeter (OHCal) - placed
– Cost experience with these four suggests no net contingency draw will be needed
– Schedule experience with these four shows the vendor delivery schedules can be accommodated and, as a result, will not drive the Critical Path
30sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Issues and Concerns• Changing shaping time of SAMPA chip (WBS 1.02.05.03) - Schedule
– Revision of working chip, but to speed it up, thus noise/stability a concern
– Any ASIC has yield risk, factory “end-of-life-on-process” risk
• Vendors – Impacts to Schedule, or Cost and Schedule if replace vendor
– Four Long-Lead Procurements are in good shape
– Carriage/Cradle and Helium Interface require bid cycles
• Placing Major Contracts - Schedule
– Factory start-up depends on this, particularly W-powder and Scintillating Fibers (SciFi) for EMCal – good experience to date
– Overall installation critical path requires the two largest remaining orders not yet under contract – Cradle/Carriage and Helium Interface
31sPHENIX Director’s ReviewApril 9-11, 2019
Summary
• We have the team, plans and procedures in place to build sPHENIX
• We have a RLS that lays out a feasible schedule to do this
• We have a plan that respects the proposed Cost Range
• We have the tools and methods in place to manage this process
• We are proceeding with the Long Lead Procurements
• The Project is ready to proceed to PD-2 and PD-3
