1. Intensive study on a 3x3x18 cm3 CsI crystal readout by an Hamamatsu large area MPPC Ivano Sarra on behalf of the Frascati Group Mu2e Italian Meeting 12 February 2015 (happy birthday Ivano)

2. Test MPPC and Electronics (~50 ps FWHM/2.35 resolution) We pulsed the MPPC with a Hamamatsu blue laser (3x3 mm2 each) The readout is the sum of 16 UV-SPL MPPC Array SPL MPPC: Preamplifier: very low input impedance 200 MHz BW 2 V dynamic Gain 8 one single HV Sum of the 16 MPPC 2

3. Test MPPC, the Electronics and the FADC Analog Signals have been acquired with a 1 GHz / 10 bits Flash ADC by CAEN It has 1 Vpp dynamic range and 10 bits We decided to reduce the MPPC signal of a factor 0.4 to use all the dynamic range of the preamplifier (Gain = 8 3) 3

22. Summary We have tested the performances of a CsI crystal readout by the new UV extended MPPCs from Hamamatsu: 1) The preamplifier and HV stage gave satisfactory results in term of stability, noise and time resolution; 2) The measures with and without optical grease gave encouraging results. 3) The number of photoelectrons per MeV and the timing resolution measured, as response to the MIP, meet the goals of the experiment; 10 monolithic MPPCs will be delivered in the beginning of March The final electronics will be ready for the end of February The test beam at BTF is scheduled from the 6 up to the 12 of April to test a matrix of 9 CsI crystals (3x3x18 cm3 each). 24
