Nomenclature Assumption
Uniform illumination of drift tube with tracks
Definitions Rthr = Distance traveled by the 25th ionization electron
(under the assumption that the signal threshold is reached by the 25th e-)
R = Distance of minimum approach of the track to the sensing wire
r = generic distance of a point from the sensing wire y = average distance of the “25th e-” origin from the
point of closest approach

R(t) relation determination: the idea
Drift velocity is not constant as a function of R: v (E (R) ) In principle the distribution of the tracks with respect to R is flat, but…
Cluster fluctuations Charge fluctuations -rays Inefficiency at the borders
… need to be included. Possible method to define the R(t) relation:
We know the time distribution (from data) We can use the simulation to determine the R distribution
R(t) relation is expected to be non-linear, due to the Ar/CO2 gas mixture and to the radial electric field

R(t) relation determination: Recipe
Even though Garfield does not reproduce with adequate precision the drift velocity, it allows to determine the“correct” Rthr distribution on an event-by-event basis, independent on the gas mixture (hypothesis to be verified):
Integrating over many tracks produced in an interval R, all possible effects (-rays, position of production of the 25th e- -Rthr, charge fluctuations, etc.) are averaged. Recipe
Get the r(t) distribution from MC: this is the distance r at which an e- needs to be created in order to reach the sensing wire at time t. Obtain from MC the arrival time of the 25th e- for each simulated track. Use the r(t) function to obtain a distribution of Rthr in the MC corresponding to the previous simulated arrival times.

Garfield: gas mixture
Garfield-Magboltz used to calculate properties of three different gas-mixture: Ar 93% , CO2 7% (standard mixture) GAS_MIX_1 GAS_MIX_1 + 100ppm H20 GAS_MIX_2 Ar 93.25%, CO2 6.75% + 100ppm H20 GAS_MIX_3
Use of 100 ppm content of water vapor suggested by previous studies (ATL-COM-MUON-2003-035)

DATA MC
Nevents (data) = 196224nbins = 100max_content = Nevents/nbins = 1962.24
Nevents (MC) = 144266nbins = 100max_content = Nevents/nbins = 1442.66
2) Use the extreme of all these intervals do define TDC values
R(t) relation determination
1) Divide the tmax-tmin interval in 100 bins, each one containing an equal number of events Nevents(data)/nbins = 1962.24
1) Divide the Rmax-Rmin interval in 100 bins, each one containing an equal number of events Nevents(MC)/nbins= 1442.66
2) Use the extreme of all these intervals do define Rthr values; transform Rthr into R by quadratically subtracting the averagey (see figure on slide 3)

Conclusions
A method for the determination of R(t) relations has been proposed. Benefits:
a lot of available statistics R(t) relation can be determined for each tube no dependence on the tracking method very fast method
Work in progress:
use of “clean” TDC spectra
analysis of more runs
MC: more statistics
comparison with other R(t) relations (Calib, …)
Understand and quantify the limit of this method (by tracking, …)
