The GlueX Detector

This talk will start with the physics goals of GlueX andwhat GlueX has to be able to do to achieve them

Present the detector as a whole and what the componentsdo individually and collectively.

Show that the GlueX detector can achieve the physics goals.

Follow up talks will go into much more detail on each of the individual detectors elements.

Search for QCD ExoticsThe GlueX Detector Design has been driven by the need to carry out Amplitude analysis.

Physics RequirementsA Good Partial Wave Analysis Requires: Hermetic Detector for charged particles and photons.

Uniform, understood acceptance.

Excellent resolution to reduce backgrounds.

Linear polarized photons.

High statistics data sets.

Sensitive to many final states.


5

Rates High statistics means high rates

Initially 107 tagged /s Design detector for 108

JLab CLAS runs at 107 already.

At 107, the total hadronic rate is » 37kHz the tagged hadronic rate is » 1.4kHzAt 108, the total hadronic rate is » 370kHz the tagged hadronic rate is » 14kHz

Running at 107 for 1 year will exceed current photoproductiondata by several orders of magnitude and will exceed current data.

More on rates in the nextpresentation

The DIRC design will accomplish the physics goals of the GlueX experiment.

There are collaborators interested in pursuing the DIRC design and construction.

The documentation discusses both a DIRC design and an atmospheric pressure Gas Cherenkov design. We do not believe that the latter will satisfy the physics requirements of GlueX.

LeakageIf your acceptance is not well understood, The PWA can “leak” one wave into another.

Break the GlueX detector in Monte Carlo: distort B-field degrade resolution change hole sizes distort beam energy

Largest leakage is ~ 1/2% of a strong signal. a1(1++) $ 1(1-+)


26

Partial Wave Analysis

Have been able to pull out signals that are ~1% ofa strong signal using PWA.

It is extremely difficult to produce leakage that isas large as 1%.

Assuming a good theoretical understanding, if hybrids are present at ~1% of normal mesons strength, this detector will be able to find them.


27

Summary

The GlueX Detector has been optimized for Partial Wave analysis, and the design has been tested by carrying out these analyses on simulated data.

The combination of detector elements with their resolution requirements allows us achieve the GlueX physics goals.

You will see that the status of all the detectors in the following talks. Some exist, most are in R&D, with all stages of R&D.

The collaboration is satisfied with the very recent DIRC design for the Cherenkov detector.
