Tasks: • Align the tracker station to the beam • Scan the tilt (X

Tasks: • Align the tracker station to the beam • Scan the tilt (X and Y) of the station to optimize the «effective staggering» • Study the Pt 2 s modules curvature => We need 5 degrees of freedom (position along Z does not change) • Two options: i) UAP from CERN ; ii) Homemade AP using linear stages 2 24/06/2020 Muone tracker mechanics

Aligment procedure 1) Raw alignment to the beam 2) Leveling the station w/o beam

Aligment procedure 1) Raw alignment to the beam 2) Leveling the station w/o beam 3) Beam ON: data acquisition & analysis 4) Center of the layer upstream: Module X and Y of upstream layer will guide linear stages X and Y respectively 5) Center of the layer downstream: Module X and Y of downstream layer will guide linear stages X and Y respectively (of the XY stages) 6) Rotation: move the whole station along X (and Y) and adjust the X stage downsteam accordingly 7) Repeat from 3) 8) Small angles tilt scan (X and Y) to optimize the «effective staggering» 9) Position survey from CERN (temperature issue) 10 24/06/2020 Muone tracker mechanics X Z Y Single motor step is 5 mm

Pt 2 s modules curvature There are 12 modules we can use to obtain data on the curvature of the modules The maximum travel distance of the linear stage can be chosen at will, whithin limits (100 mm) The maximum tilt angle (X and Y axes) will be: (travel distance [mm])*2 m. Rad Modules movements are quite complex: rototranslations + tilted modules The step angle will be 5 m. Rad 11 24/06/2020 Muone tracker mechanics 50 mm
