1 The Glast Tracker Construction in Italy Ronaldo Bellazzini Space Part Meeting Elba Island, May 22
2 The GLAST tracker construction The GLAST Gamma Ray Large Area Telescope GLAST is a pair conversion telescope based on a 8mq Silicon tracker and a CsI Electromagnetic calorimeter directly derived from the high energy experiments. GLAST will explore the uncovered energy spectrum from 3MeV to 1TeV. The tracker/converter is a very complex device, with about 1Milion readout channels, instrumented with single side silicon strip detectors. A modular design and the large use of industrial partners allow a fast and high quality construction. look in presentations
3 First Came EGRET Launched in April 1991 Observed over 6 AGN in > 1 MeV gammas. About 1/2 dozen GRB at high energy. Measurement of diffuse gamma ray background to over 1 GeV. One hundred and seventy unidentified sources in 3rd EGRET catalog. Mystery of unidentifieds since 197s Raised many interesting issues and questions which can be addressed by a NASA mid-class mission (Delta II). Sources in Third EGRET Catalog
4 .1 GeV.1 GeV Supernova Remnants GLAST Science 1 GeV 1 GeV 1 GeV Map the High-Energy Universe 1 TeV AGN GLAST pulsar survey: provide a new window on the galactic neutron star population. Map the pulsar magnetosphere and understand the physics of pulsar emission. Origin of cosmic-rays: characterize extended supernovae sources. Determine the origin of the isotropic diffuse gamma-ray background. Area (square cm) GLAST EGRET discovery reach Physics in regions of strong gravity, huge electric & magnetic fields: e.g. particle production & acceleration nea the event horizon of a black hole. Use gamma-rays from AGNs to study evolution of the early universe. Physics of gamma-ray bursts at cosmological distances. Probe the nature of particle dark matter: e.g., wimps, 5-1 ev neutrino. Decay of relics from the Big Bang Energy (GeV)
5 Pair-Conversion Telescope Photons materialize into matter-antimatter pairs: Charged particle anticoincidence shield Conversion foils Particle tracking detectors Calorimeter (energy measurement) g e+ e- E g -> m e+ c 2 + m e- c 2 GLAST Concept Low profile for wide f.o.v. Segmented anti-shield to minimize selfveto at high E. Finely segment calorimeter for enhanced background rejection and shower leakage correction. High-efficiency, precise track detectors located close to the conversions foils to minimize multiple-scattering errors. Modular, redundant design. No consumables. Low power consumption (58 W)
6 The Large Area Telescope (LAT) Tracker Array of 16 identical Tower Modules, each with a tracker (Si strips) and a calorimeter (CsI with PIN diode readout) and DAQ module. Surrounded by finely segmented ACD (plastic scintillator with PMT readout). Grid DAQ Electronics ACD Calorimeter Thermal Blanket Aluminum strong-back Grid, with heat pipes for transport of heat to the instrument sides.
