10 Introduction to de/d /dx and SiStrip Calibration
11 Introduction to the de/dx Mean Ionization Energy Loss is given by Bethe-Bloch formula βγ = p/(mc) de/dx(p/m) Relation between the energy loss and p/m For a fixed p (and charge) energy loss only depend on the particle Mass. can be use for particle identification can be use for mass reconstruction 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 11
12 Track to de/dx Run Event Mon 2009-Dec-14 04:42:31 CET COM Energy 2.36TeV P = 1.42 GeV/c Pt = 1.39 GeV/c #Hit = Chi² = Pixel Cluster Strip Cluster E/ x needs: E: measurements X: Particle Trajectory (local particle direction) Computed for all on-track Clusters. 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 12

14 Words on the SiStrip inter-calibration In order to combine together all the E/ E/ x measurement belonging to a track, the Tracker module needs to be well inter-calibrated. TOB Module detid: For every module: (SiStrip is ~15K modules) Fit the normalized cluster charge distribution with a Landau. Extract from the Fit the MPV of the distribution and compute the gain factor: G = 300/MPV (ADC/mm) 300 is arbitrary but in the middle range of the ADCs. 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 14
15 de/dx Estimators
16 de/dx estimators ~O(10) E/ x measurements with high statistical fluctuation Landau can be combined to estimate the Most Probable E/ x three de/dx estimators : 1. Median of the E/ x distribution 2. Truncated Mean of the distribution (the upper 40% values are excluded) 3. Harmonic-2 Mean de 1/ k 1 k / ( E/ x) dx= With K=-2 i The three estimators assume that all measurements are extracted from a unique Landau distribution. Needs accurate strip detector inter-calibration Neglects the logarithmic dependence of the E/ x with path-length Not Really True Short pathlength (~0.3 mm) Long pathlength (~0.6 mm) Muons (5 GeV) Normalized Charge (ADC/mm) 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 16
17 de/dx for ParticleId For a given momentum, the mean energy loss only depends on the mass of the particle (and its charge). PDG The de/dx estimators are used for particleid. Simulation@900GeV MIPs (π,µ) Protons Kaons 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 17
18 de/dx for mass reconstruction Relation valid for particle with 0.2<β<0.9 can be reverted: Mass(dE/dx, P) Constants K and C only depends on the de/dx estimator. m² de / dx K + p² C Protons can be used as a candle to determine K and C. Make Slice in P For each Slice, Find the proton peak Get Mean de/dx vs P for Protons Fit with the above formula 08/06/ IPRD10 - UCL - CP3 Loïc Quertenmont - loic.quertenmont@cern.ch 18
