---+ Outer Tracker Cosmics

This page serves as documentation for the OT cosmics setup in the LHCb pit. 

Expected rate, based on measurements in the pit: about 2000 events/day


---++ Presentations
   * [[http://indico.cern.ch/contributionDisplay.py?contribId=11&sessionId=0&confId=16385][Thomas in June 2007 LHCb week]]
   * [[%ATTACHURL%/Cosmix_StNect.ppt][Draft for talk in St Nectaire]]

---++ Aim
   * in situ tuning-in and measurements of efficiency and resolution 
   * have some real data in brunel, such that we can check that software is actually working
   * reconstruct the first track in LHCb !

---++ Setup

Scintillators:
   * 1 frame has 6 scintillators of 10 x 135 cm2 %ATTACHURL%/scintillatorframe.png
   * there are 4 frames
   * each scintillator is read out by 2 PMs
   * 1st set of two frames is positioned horizontally, next to the magnet, at about 3 meters from the cavern floor
   * 2nd set will be positioned vertically, paralellel and behind station 3, at about 10 meters from the cavern floor. This is an old picture of the setup: the 2nd set of frames will eventually be vertical %ATTACHURL%/Antonio_CTrigger.png
   * the trigger logic is build with nim electronics. It looks schemically like this %ATTACHURL%/triggerlogic.png. We need a full description, including nim modules used, delays, etc. Look at nim specification for delays inside electronics.

  The dimensions and different FE_channels are given in the following slides
---++ Electronic set-up
  * Nikhef custom made octal discriminator
