2 CONTENTS Two Photon Exchange in Elastic ep Scattering Principle of OLYMPUS Experiment Control of Systematics MC Geant4 Studies Triple-GEM Telescope Construction at Hampton U Testing at DESY TestBeam@22 Installation and Rolling-in at DORIS 8 December 2011-DESY STUDENT TALK SERIES 2

3 Proton Form Factor Ratio All Rosenbluth data from SLAC and Jlab in agreement Dramatic discrepancy between Rosenbluth and recoil polarization technique Multi-photon exchange considered the best candidate to explain the dramatic discrepancy. Dramatic Discrepancy! 3

4 Elastic e + -p /e - -p Ratio Two-photon exchange theoretically suggested : Interference of one- and twophoton amplitudes Measure ratio of positron-proton to electron-proton unpolarized elastic scattering to 1% Precision!! in stat.+sys. 4

5 Electrons/positrons (100mA) in multi-gev storage ring DORIS at DESY, Hamburg, Germany Unpolarized internal hydrogen target (buffer system) Large acceptance detector for e-p in coincidence Previous BLAST detector from MIT-Bates available 5

7 GEM LUMINOSITY MONITORS Luminosity monitors for LEPTON in coincidence with Recoil PROTON detected in the opposite sector, and vice versa 2 tgem telescopes, 1.2msr, 12 o, R=187/237/287cm, dr=50cm, 3 tracking planes PROTON Forward telescopes LEPTON 12 o LEPTON PROTON TOF

8 Control of Systematics Triple Super Ratio: Run the Exp. For the 4 different states i= e - vs e + j=toroidal magnet polarity(+-) Repeat cycle many times Ratio of counts Ratio of luminosities Ratio of acceptances (phase space integrals) Forward-angle (high-epsilon, low-q) elastic scattering (s e+ = s e- ) means there is no two-photon exchange Separately determine three super ratios Left-right symmetry = Redundancy 8

9 Monte Carlo Studies by using Geant4 Resolutions Generated and reconstructed variables Theta, Phi, P, Z electron/proton Residuals: Redundancy of variables / elastic scattering 4 variables: Pe, Pp, Te, Tp 3 constraints: 3 conservation equations 4 3 = 1 (DEGREES OF FREEDOM) TeTp: Te Te(Tp) TePe: Te Te(Pe) TePp: Te Te(Pp) Coplanarity: PhePhp: Phe Php 180 Common vertex: ZeZp: Ze Zp
