\section{Triggering on Single Charged Particle}
|
19 |
|
|
|

|
|
For the purpose of Hcal calibration, a dedicated trigger path has been
|
21 |
|
|
designed in order to record a high rate of single charge particle
|
22 |
|
|
(mainly pions). Using these data, Hcal will be able to obtained an
|
23 |
|
|
intercalibration of the cells as well as an energy scale. The momentum
|
24 |
|
|
of such particle will be equalized using appropriate weight to the sum
|
25 |
|
|
of the energy deposited in Ecal and Hcal. It is clear that such events
|
26 |
|
|
can also be used in order to have a clean sample of charged pions. The
|
27 |
|
|
study of the energy deposition respectively in Ecal and Hcal can then
|
28 |
|
|
be compared to the simulation in order to tune it.

\subsection{Specificity of the Trigger}
|
32 |
|
|
In order to perform a sensible calibration, Hcal detector needs a
|
33 |
|
|
important amount of events. Single charge particle will be mainly
|
34 |
|
|
produced within multijet production and such production is highly
|
35 |
|
|
prescale at the trigger level.
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
The trigger path has been modified in order to keep the bandwidth low:
|
38 |
|
|
even if the rate of such events is high, the information kept is
|
39 |
|
|
minimal. These kind of triggers are named AlCaRaw as their purpose is
|
40 |
|
|
the calibration of the detector. The selection of the event is strong
|
41 |
|
|
and the content of it is simply the minimal need request by Hcal
|
42 |
|
|
calibration.
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
|
|
\subsection{Selection of the Events}
|
45 |
|
|
The High Level Trigger path is seeded using an OR of L1 single jets
|
46 |
|
|
and L1 single tau jet. The corresponding level 1 rate for a
|
47 |
|
|
instantaneous luminosity of $2\times 10^{30}$ or $2\times 10^{31}$ is
|
48 |
|
|
of the order of 4.5 kHz.
|
49 |
|
|
|
50 |
|
|
The selection is based on a L1TauJet object with a matching within a
|
51 |
|
|
cone of 0.5 to a pixel track with a $p_T > 20$GeV. In a cone of 0.5
|
52 |
|
|
around this object also no pixel track with $p_T > 2$GeV should be
|
53 |
|
|
found.
|
54 |
|
|
|
55 |
|
|
Once such candidate is found, the FED collections to be written out is
|
56 |
|
|
reduced. Only tracker FEDs around the nominal tracks are recorded as
|
57 |
|
|
well as for the Ecal while most of the FEDs of Hcal are written. This
|
58 |
|
|
gives the possibility to access to all timing information needed to
|
59 |
|
|
perform Hcal calibration.
|
60 |
|
|
|
61 |
|
|
The total rate of such events is expected to be around 20Hz which
|
62 |
|
|
should give a bandwidth occupation of around 2MB/s.
|
63 |
|
|
|
64 |
|
|
Such events require tracker measurement, so they will cover at maximum
|
65 |
|
|
the calibration up to $|\eta| \leq 2.4$.
