Welcome To the virtual EIC MRPI meeting! EIC Consortium October 2020 1 1
UC Berkeley report EIC Consortium October 2020 2 2
Personnel Rey Cruz Torres Wenqing Fan joins Nov.2, 2020 Fernando Torales Acosta Dhruv Dixit joined NSSC, but still collaborates Youqi Song until August 2020 (now grad student at Yale) Undergrad Drew Palmer Barbara Jacak Close collaboration with Ernst Sichtermann, Yue Shi Lai at LBNL EIC Consortium October 2020 3 3
UCB Goals for MRPI Simulate jet production and reconstruction Aim to specify tracking requirements Jet reconstruction also implies requirements on calorimetry performance and design Use physics-driven performance specs and connect with detector technology R&D Perform full simulations of silicon tracker Contribute to Yellow Report Collaborate with LBNL on tracker design EIC Consortium October 2020 4 4
Approach Focus on jet probes of cold, dense matter Kinematics, Identify struck quark in DIS Characterize jets from the struck quark Interesting Measurements: Jet yields & spectra in e+p & e+A Energy balance, opening angle to get q-hat Jet fragmentation functions & modification Jet substructure & modifications in cold QCD matter Simulate detector response Ensure performance for physics goals Contribute to detector design EIC Consortium October 2020 5 5
Results Implement Fun4All on HPC at NERSC (Dhruv Dixit) All-silicon tracker simulations (Rey Cruz Torres + Youqi Song + Winston De Graw) Single track resolution & efficiency if hits are lost Performance with Pythia events Account for expected EIC beam characteristics Optimize tracker parameters Contribute to Yellow Report! Jet reconstruction performance (Fernando Torales Acosta) EIC Consortium October 2020 6 6
Next steps How well can we measure substructure variables? What detector hardware R&D is needed? What to copy & what to develop for silicon pixels? How might we utilize timing information? Address these in collaboration with LBNL. Figure out how best to use the technical infrastructure of the 3 labs for tracker development (detector hardware development & computing) EIC Consortium October 2020 7 7
For EOI Submit EOI jointly with LBNL, focus on silicon tracker Commit to the following personnel levels: level FTE Now: R&D phase FTE Phase 2: Begin detector construction FTE Phase 3: Construction underway faculty 0.15 0.15 0.25 PD 0 0.5 0.5 GS 0.8 0.8 1.5 UGS 0.2 0.4 0.4 total 1.15 1.85 2.65 NB: UCB group size = 1 faculty + 1 PD + 4 GS + 3 UG Let s discuss UC EOI later this afternoon EIC Consortium October 2020 8 8
Backup EIC Consortium October 2020 9 9
Advertising our consortium & output Time to seek speaking opportunities as a consortium? Become visible as a consortium Reports on pooled results more impactful Help to get us on the EIC map Let s plan at the end of today Venues of interest Conferences: POETIC, DIS, Moriond, APS GHP, Lepton-Photon, PANIC, etc. Users group: EICUG, others: RHIC, Jlab Users Groups, where else? Workshops... EIC Consortium October 2020 10 10
