Purpose of cosmic rays DAQ
• 2 types of data taking: integrated charge (QDC CAEN V792N) and lineshape (Flash ADC CAEN V1721). Timing information is also present (TDC CAEN V1190) but not systematic.
• QDC data used for:– inter-channel calibration – resolution studies– absolute scale, comparing cosmics to single-electron
• FADC data used for MeV/mV calibration

4Q passing tracks (“up” calorimeter)

![Page 13: ZDD installation and performance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/568148f7550346895db6196f/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Absolute scale and E/E
• According to Montecarlo a passing cosmic track leaves 16 MeV of energy in the scintillator
• QDC scale (when “Happy Box” is used) is approximately 170 pC / 16 MeV = 11 pC / MeV.
• For E/E we find 20/180 = 11%, consistent with simulation (no shower fluctuations).

Number of photoelectrons
• Assuming a PM gain ≈ 1.2·106, the number of photoelectrons per cosmic track is:
• The factor 2 in the denominator is due to the “Happy Box”
• Approximately 1/7th of these 443 p.e. develop in the first PM, 2/7th in each of the other 3 PMs

Photoelectrons/MeV (cosmics)
• According to Montecarlo 16 MeV are deposited in the scintillator by cosmic track, 50 MeV in all. This means:
• 28 photoelectrons/MeV in the fibers (14 cm)• 9 photoelectrons/MeV in the whole

ZDD as a new luminometer(luminosity monitor)
• The old luminometer on east side of BESIII was uninstalled and replaced by ZDD.• ZDD signal is fanned out as luminometer. The electronics and DAQ for luminometer are kept the same.• Tested by the noise, the new luminometer system is working properly. Its performance as a luminometer
shall be checked under colliding mode of BEPCII.
Frascati cosmic ray test shows:
The time resolution is 0.97ns, which meets the requirement of a luminometer ( <4ns) The signal width is only 5.2ns, so dead time is very little.

Purpose of single-electron DAQ
2011/11/30 A. Calcaterra 18
• Study response to single electrons of different energies
• Study • resolution with single electrons• absolute scale factor, MeV/pC• photoelectron statistics
• How does these data compare to cosmic-rays ones?

Absolute scale
• According to Montecarlo a 450 MeV electron leaves 12%·450 = 54 MeV of energy in the scintillator
• If the absolute scale from cosmics is right, we should see 54 MeV·5.5pC/MeV=297 pC (“Happy Box” X2 preamp was not in use yet)
• ….and we do! Perfect!

Number of photoelectrons
• Assuming a PM gain ≈ 1.2·106, the number of photoelectrons at 450 MeV is:
• According to MC (12%·450 = 54 MeV deposited in the scintillator) this means 30 photoelectrons per MeV (28 in cosmics)
• How are these divided among the strata?

Cosmic rays at IHEP• There is no external trigger• Auto-generated trigger: ≥2 out of 8 FlashADC
channels must have a minimum below some threshold (baseline-3cts = baseline-12mV)

![Page 29: ZDD installation and performance](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062423/568148f7550346895db6196f/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Analysis still very preliminary• Fitting the waveforms we obtain for each
channel a minimum and a time of minimum– Noise shows up mainly in 2-hits events (peak
times differ randomly)– 3-hits events are much cleaner
• …still, very difficult to define a passing track, due to the very small solid angle
• No control over the track length, many different track lengths in the samples

Next steps (very soon)
• Use BESIII signals into our own DAQ instead of auto-generated one but read data onto our separate PC.
• Implement the TDC (100 ps resolution)• Estimate data size in real running conditions
– Expected size = 1 byte per channel per BESIII trigger per window size (1 sample/2 ns)
– 200 ns window 16 bytes*100 samples

Next steps (not much later)
• After data size is known (and accepted )…• …and we demonstrate that the data may be
useful…• …then, we will finally ask to incorporate VME
readout into BESIII general dataflow• At this point, help will be needed from expert
BESIII DAQ- and offline-reconstruction persons

Conclusions
• The ZDD has been designed, built, and tested in record-time
• The design is sound and the performances are acceptable given the relatively little time and effort left for data taking and analysis
• The installation was hard but the final result is satisfactory
• Next stop…….physics results
