Introduction
Physics Goals:• The Muon system of LHCb is primarily used to trigger on muons
produced in the decay of b-hadrons: b X ;In particular: B J/(+-) Ks ; Bs J/(+-) ; Bs +-
• The muon momentum is measured precisely in the tracking system• The muon system identifies muons from tracks in the tracking system
Requirements:
• Modest momentum resolution (~20%) for a robust PT -selective trigger
• Good time resolution (a few ns) for reliable bunch-crossing identification
• Good muon identification (~90%); small pion-misidentification (~1%)

IntroductionBackground sources in the LHC environment:
,K X decays – main background for L0 muon trigger
• Shower particles– hadron punch-through including shower muons
• Low-energy background induced by n- processes – contributes significant to chamber hit rate
• Machine background, in particular high energy beam-halo muons
Requirements:• High rate capability of chambers • Good ageing properties of detector components• Detector instrumentation with sufficient redundancy

Muon Trigger AlgorithmLevel 0 Muon Trigger:
Muon track finding: • Find seed pad in station M3 • Find pads within opened search windows (FOI) in stations M2, M4 and M5• Use pads found in M2 and M3 to extrapolate to M1 and find pad in M1 within FOI• Stations M1 and M2 are used for the PT-measurement
-> Muon Trigger exploits multiple scattering in the muon shield by applying tight search windows

Level 0 Muon Trigger
Beam halo muons:• Distribution of energy and radial
position of halo muons 1m upstream of IP travelling in the direction of the muon system
• Muons entering the experimental hall behind M5 give hits in different BX in the muon stations
->No significant effect
• Halo muons are present in ~1.5% of the bunch crossings
• About 0.1% of them cause a L0 muon trigger
CBM workshop on Muon ID 17.10.2006

Muon IdentificationAlgorithm:
• Extrapolate reconstructed tracks with p > 3GeV/c and first hits in Velo from T10 to the muon system (M2 etc.)
• Define a field of interest (FOI) around extrapolation point and
• Define minimum number of stations with hits in FOIs
• M2+M3 for 3 p 6 GeV/c• M2+M3+(M4 or M5)
for 6 p 10 GeV/c • M2+M3+M4+M5 for p 10 GeV/c

Muonic Final States
B0 J/(+-) Ks :• Well established CP-violating decay from which angle in the unitary
triangle can be determined. • J/ (+-) reconstruction:
- oppositely charged tracks identified as muons. - Mass of dimuon pair consistent with J/ mass-> More than 100k ev./year expected in LHCb
Bs +-: • Decay involves FCNC and is strongly
suppressed in the Standard Model-> BO mass resolution 18 MeV/c2
-> ~10 signal events over 3 bkg expected per year
LO performance for both decays:• L0 trigger acceptance of fully
reconstructed events is 98%.• L0 muon acceptance is 95% with >70% triggered by muon trigger
alone.

Gas Properties
Drift velocity of 90 µm/ns is ‘saturated’ meaning that a small change in electric field does not affect the time resolution.
In Ar/CO2/CF4 40/40/20 we expect
for 10 GeV muons about: ~ 42 clusters/cm ~ 2.35 e-/cluster,-> 99 e-/cm

• Time RMS is unchanged - no space charge effect, as expected • 4% efficiency loss at 1MHz due to signal pileup, as expected

Comparison with Simulation
Double gap chamber: •95% efficiency if the threshold is set to 30% of the average signal.
• 99% efficiency if the threshold is set to 20% of the average signal.
• In order to have a double gap chamber well within the plateau we want to be able to use a threshold of ~15% of the average signal.
-> Good agreement, we understand our detector

Chamber Specifications Gas Gain variations:• Working point should not move out of the plateau
• The gas gain should be for 95% of the area within 25% of G0
• For the remaining 5% of the area the gas gain should be within 50%
of G0
• A gain change of a factor 1.25 (1.5) corresponds to a voltage change of ±34 (62)V around 2650 V, corresponding to ±1.25 (2.25)%.-> The gas gain changes by a factor 1.25 (1.5) if the wire surface field changes by ±1.25 (2.25)%.

Chamber Construction
Production Program:• Within two years ~1500 chambers had to be build in 6 production centres. • Quality assurances (QA) is a key issue
Example for QA:• Measurement of wire pitch with CCD cameras using, telecentric lenses
CBM workshop on Muon ID 17.10.2006

Wire Pitch Measurement
Small pitch fluctuations mainly due to precision of combs -> 99% of wires within (2.00 ±0.05)mm
Quality check of method: Reproducibility of result within 1.5m (RMS) on average
-> Method well adapted for reliable QA

MWPC Aging studies
Two long term aging tests have been performed: 1st test at GIF in 2001, where charges of 0.25 C/cm have been
accumulated in 6 months.
Open loop gas system has been used
Gas mixture: Ar / CO2 / CF4 (40%, 50%, 10%)
2nd test at ENEA Cassacia in June 2003, where charges of 0.5 C/cm have been accumulated in 1 month (using the 25kCi (!) Co source).
One chamber has been in open loop, one in closed loop
Gas mixture: Ar / CO2 / CF4 (40%, 40%, 20%)
Parameters controlled :• Relative gas gain: In both tests one gap was used as reference gap to avoid complicated corrections for P and T variations. The reference gap was only for very short periods per day under HV and always flashed with the fresh gas.
• Dark currents, including self-sustaining rest current following the beam off. The dark currents were measured with current monitors with a resolution of 1 nA.
CBM workshop on Muon ID 17.10.2006
31B.Schmidt
No signs for aging from the measured parameters:
Relative currents did not change.
Malter currents were not observed.
No variations in current ratios after/before Casaccia from measurements with GIF and with an Am-source.

Conclusions
Conclusions: Although no drop in gas gain was visible after the Casaccia aging
test, the materials exposed to CF4 show strong surface etching.
The effects are very similar for the chambers in the two gas system used in Casaccia (vented and re-circulation gas-system).
The effect has been stronger the 2nd aging test, where the gas mixture contained 20% CF4, than in 1st test, where 10% CF4 have been used.
Plans: Repeat the test at GIF in the coming months, where the test takes
however 5 times longer than in Casaccia (source strength 25kCi).
New mixture with less/no CF4 .
Both gas loops will be used.
Control of O2 and H2O and contamination is foreseen.
