Freiburg 7/07/2000 2 STAMP CALIBRATION (1) Goal: Correct for the unprecise mechanical positioning of the glass plates and the fiducial grids. Principle: •Build a reference STAMP out of 2 precisely known positions of a reference grid (using CMM + optical control) •With the same camera, compare the STAMP grid seen by reflection on the glass plate with the reference grid. external camera looking at the grid of the 2nd arm (long arm) or at the reference support cube of the reference grid grid at the mirrored position of the 2nd grid (with respect to the reflecting face of the 2nd glass plate) Freiburg 7/07/2000 2nd grid (from the long arm) (mechanical reference, spheres - -, not shown ) 3 STAMP CALIBRATION (2) •The positions of the reference grids w.r.t. the STAMP support balls of the calibration bench (measured with a CMM and an optical bench) define the reference STAMP (calistamp) with its transfer matrix T: Spot coordinates on the 2 screens (short and long arms) xs ys xl yl T y z qy qz Laser coordinates T is calculated with a software simulation program.

Freiburg 7/07/2000 Spot at 14 m 11 Nices features: • Use commercial products (CCD, glass plates, lenses). • No precision mechanics required. • Can easily be improved with new CCDs ( larger CCD => shorter device). • Large range (from 30x38 mm to 40x40mm with the LED scheme shown below). • Can work with visible laser light. • Fast and simple calibration (1 week for 180 STAMPs). • Radiation hardness (same technology as the TC255 tested at Prospero). • High transparency : 56% of intensity left after 7 STAMPs (intermediate h ray with 4 MDT and 3 TGC layers). Present problems: • The DATCHA/Freiburg STAMP has been built with a too soft aluminium alloy with ball inprints larger than 10 mm. • When working with visible laser, some light protection (short tubes ) may be needed to protect from parasitic light. May be solved by using a pulsed laser and background image subtraction (not done in the Freiburg test). • Bad laser optics used for the Freiburg test (problem at 14 m). and potential improvements: • Size (length = 290mm). With a twice as large CCD (presently 4 x 3.5 mm for the TC237), the demagnification can be reduced to 1/5 and the length decreased down to 200 mm. • The thick glass plate (5mm) can possibly be replaced by a thin mylar foil (10mm) canceling the secondary reflection and the beam deviation. • The LED system for illumination of the grid during the runs for the control of the lens-CCD positions w.r.t. the screen has not yet been tested). Simulation shows that the grid can be replaced by 4 LEDs at the screen corners (see figure). Freiburg 7/07/2000 12 Integration inside the ATLAS spectrometer : The principle of the STAMP implementation in the End Cap spectrometer is shown on the sketch on the right. The laser can be placed either at the EI or at the EO layer. No STAMP size problem is expected st the EM and EO layers. At EI, it is possible to replace the STAMP by the laser itself. This may even simplify the system implementation with the intermediate polar beam (large distance between the bar and the beam, which requires a periscope system when optical sensors are used. platform EI bar Laser head Piezo aiming system (+- 0.1 mm, remote control) Laser fiber Freiburg 7/07/2000 13 STAMP cost table : •Mechanics •glass plates •CCD TC 237 •lenses TOTAL Freiburg 7/07/2000 300 x 2 300 x 2 50 x 2 2000 FF 600 FF 600 FF 100 FF 3300 FF (500 Euros) 14
