1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,740 Tell us about it's very taxing and very taxing performance in round two. 2 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,760 And so please go ahead matcha 3 00:00:10,590 --> 00:00:16,230 Good afternoon to everybody. It's a big honor for me to be here and give this 4 00:00:16,230 --> 00:00:20,520 presentation on behalf of Dallas collaboration about the texting detectors 5 00:00:20,820 --> 00:00:28,800 and the texting performance in Ubuntu with Ellis. During the presentation, I will 6 00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,840 talk about the Alice experiment and in particular, I will talk about the early D 7 00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:39,270 IDs detector in one year from today, I will describe the event reconstruction and 8 00:00:39,270 --> 00:00:42,870 the taxing technique for the reconstruction in particular of every 9 00:00:42,870 --> 00:00:49,260 flavor vertices. Then I will talk about some interesting physics results. The 10 00:00:49,260 --> 00:00:54,390 TELUS was able to provide thanks to its vertex in capabilities. And finally, I 11 00:00:54,390 --> 00:01:01,050 will spend few words about the IDS upgrade. Elisa is general first experiment 12 00:01:01,050 --> 00:01:06,360 composed of a central model with up to durability coverage between minus 0.9 0.9 13 00:01:06,750 --> 00:01:13,020 and immune spectrometers for up to 80. I don't have the time to describe all the 19 14 00:01:13,020 --> 00:01:18,030 subsystems of Alice, I will just spot the free of the detectors in the central 15 00:01:18,030 --> 00:01:23,040 bottle involved in the dirt fixing and in the tracking. The inner muscle detector of 16 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:27,570 the central model is the inner tracking system, which apart from the localization 17 00:01:27,570 --> 00:01:32,490 of the primary vertex as his primary goal, the localization of secondary vertices 18 00:01:32,550 --> 00:01:36,930 have a flavor as well in the case. And in addition, the inner tracking system is 19 00:01:36,930 --> 00:01:43,770 involved in tracking helping the time projection chamber on this duty. The temp 20 00:01:43,770 --> 00:01:48,630 projection chamber is the main tracker of their Lisa and also identifies charged 21 00:01:48,630 --> 00:01:52,260 particles via the measurement of ionization or unionization energy loss. 22 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:58,380 Furthermore, an additional detector involved in this trucking duties is that 23 00:01:58,380 --> 00:02:03,330 your team which also helps in the electron identification we have the measurement of 24 00:02:03,330 --> 00:02:09,630 transitional radiation. As I said the innermost detector of the central barrel 25 00:02:09,750 --> 00:02:13,530 is the inner tracking system, which is a fully silicon detector composed of six 26 00:02:13,530 --> 00:02:17,820 cylindrical layers, the silicon pixel silicon raised and silicon strip detector. 27 00:02:18,660 --> 00:02:22,890 This is a negreanu Laurie apparatus able to cope with thousands of trucks per unit 28 00:02:22,890 --> 00:02:29,280 of rapidity that we have in high volume collisions, and it's also able to detect 29 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:34,140 simultaneously more than 10,000 trucks. As I anticipated the main duty of these 30 00:02:34,140 --> 00:02:38,850 detectors is the reconstruction of secondary vertices of every flavor abs in 31 00:02:38,850 --> 00:02:43,650 the Kazem in a separated way from the primary vertex. In addition, this detector 32 00:02:43,650 --> 00:02:48,600 helps improve with the tracking and also tracks as low particles that are not able 33 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:56,370 to reach the TPC and be tracked their events recorded by Lisa, reconstructed 34 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,360 according to a predefined reconstruction flow which starts with appealing Not a 35 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:05,700 reconstruction of the interaction point by exploiting the DSP. In the meanwhile, the 36 00:03:05,700 --> 00:03:12,420 tracking in the DPC starts starting from the outer edges of the detector. And as 37 00:03:12,420 --> 00:03:17,100 soon as the tracks are reconstructing the EPC, they are belong to the IDs. And this 38 00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:22,140 prolongation is done with a matching efficiency quite high of order of 85 90% 39 00:03:22,170 --> 00:03:26,100 almost flat in terms of momentum and while we produce those in our Monte Carlo 40 00:03:26,100 --> 00:03:31,200 simulations, as soon as the tracking arrives, it it is also there's no 41 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,760 particles can be tracked them by the usage of the IDS stand alone, and then the 42 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:39,840 prolong tracks are refitted outwards in order to match the more efficient external 43 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:45,210 detectors. And finally, the trucks the global trucks are subject to a final 44 00:03:45,900 --> 00:03:51,090 inward defeat them that is very useful for the improvement of the trucking 45 00:03:51,090 --> 00:03:56,550 performance as you can appreciate from the left block, as soon as we require the 46 00:03:56,550 --> 00:04:00,870 prolongation of the tracks to the ITA from TPC to IPS. we improve by a factor of two 47 00:04:00,870 --> 00:04:05,850 or three, the resolution in the curvature of the track and as soon as this set of 48 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:10,290 global tracks is ready, we can do the final introduction vertex finding and then 49 00:04:10,290 --> 00:04:15,720 characterize completely the event. At this point we can look for physics and in 50 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:22,020 particular, reconstruct secondary vertices of bofur. Weekly case, for example, their 51 00:04:22,020 --> 00:04:27,510 partner item and the case associated to every flavor such as the measurements 52 00:04:27,510 --> 00:04:33,630 along to see, candidates associated to these secondary vertices are then counted 53 00:04:33,690 --> 00:04:37,260 through these environments distributions which are available after the 54 00:04:37,260 --> 00:04:42,750 reconstruction of secondary vertices. This reconstruction is done by fully 55 00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:48,000 reconstructing the final Atlantic state. And the vector x position is found by 56 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,130 minimizing the distance among the Delta trucks. The reconstruction of secondary 57 00:04:53,130 --> 00:04:56,970 vertices takes place by approximating tracks close to primary vertex a straight 58 00:04:56,970 --> 00:04:59,970 line. But despite his geometrical 59 00:05:01,530 --> 00:05:07,260 approximation. Even in the worst scenario, however, we have really negligible bias in 60 00:05:07,260 --> 00:05:11,820 the position of the vertex and this simplifies all the procedure. The 61 00:05:11,820 --> 00:05:16,560 reconstruction of secondary vertices is also very important in order to be able to 62 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:21,060 exploit that at analysis level. Some interesting variables such as decay length 63 00:05:21,060 --> 00:05:26,250 and pointing angle which are strictly related to the topology of the decay. The 64 00:05:26,250 --> 00:05:33,390 secondary vertices reconstruction is also performed the MonteCarlo simulations after 65 00:05:33,390 --> 00:05:38,340 correcting the reconstructed tracks in a data driven way, for the For what concerns 66 00:05:38,340 --> 00:05:42,720 the input parameter is a parameter to Primary Ethics. And with this procedure, 67 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:47,850 we report to the resolution of the primary value of the input parameter sorry, of 68 00:05:47,850 --> 00:05:53,610 trucks in MonteCarlo to match the one in data. This procedure is very important to 69 00:05:53,610 --> 00:05:58,170 not only for efficiency corrections, but also to provide unbiased templates for 70 00:05:58,170 --> 00:06:04,080 input parameter based analysis. After this short introduction, I wanted to speak 71 00:06:04,260 --> 00:06:08,550 about some interesting physics results from Alice in proton proton and lead light 72 00:06:08,550 --> 00:06:16,200 collisions. And to start with this, I show you a typical lead collision. The teleSUR 73 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:23,550 g study in 2018 taking campaign as you can appreciate from these block them, the 74 00:06:23,550 --> 00:06:27,870 truck density in the central model in lead collision is very high. We are talking 75 00:06:27,870 --> 00:06:32,490 about several thousands of trucks in central events. And as you can understand 76 00:06:32,490 --> 00:06:37,440 that this makes the analysis in every flavor of every flavor more challenging in 77 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,950 his environment, due to the huge combinatorial background that we have to 78 00:06:40,950 --> 00:06:45,180 cope with. But in any case, there are construction of every flavor of secondary 79 00:06:45,180 --> 00:06:51,510 vertices is fundamental for Alice for the study of the courtroom plasma that is 80 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:57,480 produced experimentally via the API and collisions. As a matter of fact, the 81 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,860 chairman beauty quarks are produced before they could use information. And for this 82 00:07:01,860 --> 00:07:07,680 reason, they can be considered effectively unique probes of PGP since they experience 83 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,720 the full evolution of the medium thanks to the protection capabilities of Alice today 84 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:18,150 I'm able to show you this very nice plot. This compilation plot of the Chung flavor 85 00:07:19,140 --> 00:07:24,600 family, where you can appreciate the nuclear modification factor array for 86 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,670 different channels of drums. This variable they are a is very important in heavy ion 87 00:07:29,670 --> 00:07:34,410 collisions, because it provides a natural comparison between the behavior that we 88 00:07:34,410 --> 00:07:39,360 observe in the ion collisions and they wanted to serve in in proton proton 89 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:44,760 collisions. And this variable is observable is sensitive to several effects 90 00:07:44,790 --> 00:07:50,220 such as the medium button energy loss, the urbanization mechanisms that involve every 91 00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:54,360 quirks and effects related to thermalization and especially fusion 92 00:07:54,360 --> 00:08:01,650 coefficients through PT. Elisa is able to measure electric And disentangle the 93 00:08:01,650 --> 00:08:06,030 beauty component of these electrons from other sources in both proton proton and 94 00:08:06,030 --> 00:08:10,680 lead collisions. And these is possible because beauty algorithms have longer life 95 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:15,660 time. So, then charge models for example, and as a consequence they decay products 96 00:08:15,660 --> 00:08:19,860 and in particular in this case the electrons have a larger distance to close 97 00:08:19,860 --> 00:08:24,690 this approach with respect to primary vertex and this topological property can 98 00:08:24,690 --> 00:08:30,960 be exploited when looking at data in the topology, you can appreciate the input 99 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:37,500 parameter distribution which is described with the MonteCarlo template speeds of 100 00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:42,330 different sources. In particular the red template that is the one of electron from 101 00:08:42,330 --> 00:08:46,950 UT Adams. He has larger tastes with respect to the green one, which refers to 102 00:08:46,950 --> 00:08:51,180 electron from charm. And these reflects exactly the topology of dedicated there 103 00:08:51,180 --> 00:08:57,810 was explaining before. Thanks to this, we can then provide interesting measurements 104 00:08:57,810 --> 00:09:05,460 of beauty electrons Such as the elliptic elliptic flow of electrons in semi central 105 00:09:05,460 --> 00:09:10,950 led collisions. As you can see here, this is a very recent result of Edison and the 106 00:09:10,950 --> 00:09:15,210 such measurements are really important for us to have a further insight of the 107 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:23,160 physics of beauty in the plasma battalions can do even more and the reconstructor 108 00:09:23,190 --> 00:09:29,730 secondary vertices of charma are drones associated to beauty Ks. And on the left 109 00:09:29,730 --> 00:09:33,780 you can appreciate a compilation plot of production cross section of DME prompted 110 00:09:33,780 --> 00:09:39,150 the measures in proton proton collisions by TV and on the writer the comparison of 111 00:09:39,150 --> 00:09:44,760 nuclear modification factor of both prompt and on prompt digital mesons. All these 112 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,150 measurements are possible by exploiting different decay topologies which are 113 00:09:48,150 --> 00:09:54,300 resolved in alias thanks to the vaccine capabilities, which are then pushed up by 114 00:09:54,330 --> 00:09:59,310 the usage of machine learning tools, which make the separation among prom D known 115 00:09:59,310 --> 00:10:01,590 from D Background components possible. 116 00:10:02,700 --> 00:10:07,530 Looking at the results, we can appreciate on the right plot an inter of largest 117 00:10:07,530 --> 00:10:12,630 suppression for prompted the zeros with respect to non compliance at intermediate 118 00:10:12,630 --> 00:10:16,170 PT and these measurements are really important for us because comparing them 119 00:10:16,170 --> 00:10:23,250 with theory we can really assess the acute GP properties. battalion is a competitive 120 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,760 experimental seen proton proton collisions, for example, it's the only 121 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:32,010 lithium experiment able to measure lung the C volume down to one g v over c. EDT 122 00:10:32,580 --> 00:10:37,140 and the low PT region. region is very important for this because here is where 123 00:10:37,140 --> 00:10:42,720 we spoke to the largest difference between the measurement and the urbanization 124 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:48,360 models. And in particular, the charma. baronova measuring ratio that we measure 125 00:10:48,660 --> 00:10:53,970 shows significantly higher values, then expectations from Monte Carlo simulations 126 00:10:53,970 --> 00:10:58,140 that are tuned to reproduce the plus or minus measurements and these recent 127 00:10:58,140 --> 00:11:02,760 measurements from Elissa interesting because challenge modernisation models and 128 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:08,460 here the physics seems to hide something really interesting. Another measurement 129 00:11:08,670 --> 00:11:13,440 provided by a less important proton collision rapidity is the production of 130 00:11:13,470 --> 00:11:18,960 Crompton on project site, which is reconstructed in a central Barela. Between 131 00:11:18,990 --> 00:11:23,700 in the in the decay channel a plus c minus. The non prompt component is 132 00:11:23,700 --> 00:11:27,390 distinguished from the prompt one by exploiting the sizable beauty decay other 133 00:11:27,390 --> 00:11:28,020 and decay length. 134 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,860 And the thanks to this 135 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,110 LS is able to provide the measurement of the non projects a fraction of meter PDT 136 00:11:37,110 --> 00:11:42,180 down to one GB oversee and this is the lowest value of terms of momentum explore 137 00:11:42,180 --> 00:11:47,460 the four DS measurement. In addition, the measurement of Le sent me the rapidity of 138 00:11:47,460 --> 00:11:51,000 content on from chip side are complimentary in terms of rapidity 139 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:55,680 coverage, to the LSE v one, and this can be nicely appreciated on the right block, 140 00:11:55,920 --> 00:12:00,630 where you can see a very nice measurement of PCB at four feet in blue. completed by 141 00:12:00,630 --> 00:12:05,700 the Black Point from Alice. But then Alice is able also to reconstruct secondary 142 00:12:05,700 --> 00:12:11,550 vertices associated with the case. And one of great interest for at least in the last 143 00:12:11,580 --> 00:12:17,940 in the last year or so, is the one of the hyper Triton became a new friend via the 144 00:12:17,940 --> 00:12:21,960 measurement of the lifetime of helium three is very important to solve to try to 145 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,980 solve the so called icon puzzle which has huge interest in astrophysics because it 146 00:12:25,980 --> 00:12:30,390 concerns the discrepancy between the expected values of neutrons or masses 147 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,470 which is lower than the absurd one for some cases, 148 00:12:34,949 --> 00:12:38,279 and that the three minutes again that 149 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:44,880 these accesses the muscle is justified according to model. So, by adding an 150 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:51,570 additional repulsive contribution, we should which should come from either a 151 00:12:51,570 --> 00:12:56,370 nuclear nuclear interactions and they protect on lifetime is an experimental 152 00:12:56,370 --> 00:13:01,710 problem of this potential. So, this is really interesting question Decent. The 153 00:13:01,710 --> 00:13:05,730 eye protection candidates are reconstructed in a central bottle with a 154 00:13:05,730 --> 00:13:09,510 visitor finder technique. And the signature of Viper Triton is 155 00:13:09,510 --> 00:13:14,400 reconstructing a different CT interval so that the measurement of the lifetime is 156 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:19,950 possible by fixing this distribution. As you can appreciate the from the 157 00:13:20,970 --> 00:13:27,480 compilation plot on the top. On the bottom left, you can see that the contribution of 158 00:13:27,480 --> 00:13:32,280 Alice in this field is really outstanding. And in particular, the precision in the 159 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:37,170 measurements for malice improved in the last year thanks to the new lead the lead 160 00:13:37,170 --> 00:13:42,660 to data samples at fight TV recorded in 2018 and 2015 data taking campaigns. 161 00:13:44,370 --> 00:13:49,380 Before concluding my talk, I want to spend a few words about the IDS upgrade and I 162 00:13:49,380 --> 00:13:54,360 take the chance to invite you to follow their alley subgrade talk in which you can 163 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,920 know something more about a new vertex detector that will be available in LS 164 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:06,570 after the long shutdown tool Which is the newest form of tracker the IPS will have a 165 00:14:06,570 --> 00:14:13,440 renewed layout and is ready to be installed after the long shutdown too. And 166 00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:16,290 in particular, the IPS will have an additional layer closer to the 167 00:14:16,290 --> 00:14:21,270 introduction point. And in particular, it will be the first large scale occupied 168 00:14:21,270 --> 00:14:29,370 monolithic active pixel sensors detector and this will let us improve the 169 00:14:29,730 --> 00:14:34,380 performance in the reconstruction of the flavor vertices and reduce the 170 00:14:34,380 --> 00:14:39,600 uncertainties at low PT in the performance of this detector will improve not only 171 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:44,010 because it will be closer to the interaction point, but also because it 172 00:14:44,010 --> 00:14:48,930 will be lighter in term of a material object with a reduced and multiple 173 00:14:48,930 --> 00:14:54,630 scattering property as a consequence, then it will be faster in terms of readout and 174 00:14:54,630 --> 00:15:00,480 we Yes, we are talking about a factor 100 have improved the readout rate and then We 175 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:08,100 will have an improved spatial resolution thanks to an improvement. And thanks to 176 00:15:08,100 --> 00:15:15,570 this and also thanks to the further upgrade. So that we we will have in the 177 00:15:15,810 --> 00:15:20,070 ATLAS detector, the performance of the full apparatus will improve. And for this 178 00:15:20,070 --> 00:15:23,910 reason, we are really looking forward to the last long shutdown and long shutdown 179 00:15:23,910 --> 00:15:28,350 free data taking campaigns. But in any case, we can say that Ellis has been 180 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,370 already obtaining remarkable results in undoing all the collision systems 181 00:15:32,370 --> 00:15:39,420 considered. Here I report a non exhaustive list of very interesting talks from Alice, 182 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:46,680 about physics perspectives, I lights and upgrades. I invite all of you to follow 183 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:52,320 them and also the other really interesting talks from Alice. And in general, I wish 184 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:53,550 you very nice 185 00:15:53,550 --> 00:15:54,300 conference. 186 00:15:55,110 --> 00:15:56,820 Thank you very much for your attention. 187 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:04,350 slot machines and questions, please raise your hand 188 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,380 don't see anything immediately. 189 00:16:14,700 --> 00:16:18,270 It is what it is ask them what they don't see the right hand. 190 00:16:19,980 --> 00:16:23,850 I have for four speakers you can't raise your hand but you can unmute yourself 191 00:16:23,850 --> 00:16:24,660 anyways. 192 00:16:26,310 --> 00:16:32,790 If you have a question yeah okay, so yeah, I mean, cuz I mean your parameter solution 193 00:16:32,790 --> 00:16:34,290 is shown on page nine. 194 00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,200 Okay, you didn't fully understood to what was your module. 195 00:16:43,050 --> 00:16:49,050 So what we do before constructing secondary vertices of every flavor out on 196 00:16:49,050 --> 00:16:55,050 the case in MonteCarlo, is to apply a data driven correction track by track on the on 197 00:16:55,050 --> 00:17:00,630 our reconstructed tracks in MonteCarlo according to what we see in data And this 198 00:17:00,630 --> 00:17:06,960 data driven correction is useful to make that a solution in MonteCarlo that is the 199 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,210 green one originally to match the one in data. So, the effect of the correction is 200 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:17,460 you can see, looking at the red points, which perfectly match the ones in data 201 00:17:18,690 --> 00:17:24,030 goes from one to kind of I mean for data to you, I mean, this is the solution, do 202 00:17:24,030 --> 00:17:28,440 you compute the primary solution? 203 00:17:29,670 --> 00:17:38,220 we propagate the tracks towards the primary vertex and, and we measure the 204 00:17:38,220 --> 00:17:43,710 impact parameter of prolong tracks in the IPS and here the IPS plays a crucial role 205 00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:44,610 to these 206 00:17:46,410 --> 00:17:49,680 because we just forward for MonteCarlo today. 207 00:17:50,100 --> 00:17:55,890 Yeah, yeah. So, just a Monte Carlo correction, reconstruct the trucks before 208 00:17:55,890 --> 00:17:57,210 reconstructing the vertices. 209 00:17:59,010 --> 00:17:59,700 Okay, thanks. 210 00:18:06,420 --> 00:18:09,330 Okay, thanks. I'm for one. 211 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:17,970 One more quick question. No one else has one I have kind of a related one on slide 212 00:18:17,970 --> 00:18:26,700 13 we should have a nice separation between beauty and charm and prompt 213 00:18:26,850 --> 00:18:34,470 events. And so, I don't have a feel for pileup at Alice, do you have any issues 214 00:18:34,470 --> 00:18:39,300 with PV Association, associating tracks to the wrong PV. 215 00:18:40,740 --> 00:18:50,040 And yes, sir, we have about we are able to remove a pileup sir by looking also at 216 00:18:50,430 --> 00:18:57,600 correlation among different among signals from different detectors. And so, we 217 00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:04,440 discover through these correlations we are able to also treated these pile up 218 00:19:04,860 --> 00:19:07,380 component. So yeah. 219 00:19:08,850 --> 00:19:14,280 Okay, very nice. There we do do something similar for separating beauty and charm 220 00:19:14,280 --> 00:19:21,120 and lgtb this getting the wrong PV is sometimes an issue
