Encapsulated resistive anode bulk Micromegas detectors for the T2K experiment TPC upgrade

Résumé

In order to establish accurate leptonic CP violation at 3 σ level for a significant fraction of the possible δCP values, the T2K collaboration plan to upgrade the beam intensity and to upgrade the near detector ND280. The T2K experiment consists of a totally active Super-Fine-Grained-Detector, two High Angle Time Projection Chamber and six time of flight planes. The HA-TPC will be used for 3D track reconstruction, momentum measurement and particle identification. These time projection chambers, with overall dimensions of 2 × 2 × 0.8 m3, will be equipped with 32 encapsulated resistive anode bulk Micromegas detectors. The thin field cage (3 cm thickness, 4% radiation length) will consist of composite material with a Kapton foil with copper strips as inner layer. The 42 × 34 cm2 ERAM detector will use a 400 kΩ/sq diamond-like carbon foil to spread the charge over the pad plane, each pad being approximately 1 cm2. New front-end electronic cards, based on the AFTER chip, directly mounted on the back of the detector and parallel to its plane have been developed and used for the signal readout. The first production ERAM detector modules have been tested in a lab using a X-ray bench and a cosmic bench. In July 2021, data have also been taken in a test beam at DESY in 0.2 T magnetic field. Performance characterization and results from these measurement campaigns will be shown.
