GMT module positions within TOF trays (from Bill Llope, email to the stargmt mailing list on 2012-10-31):
here's some info on the gem global positioning in gemtof trays. note that these are *nominal* positions. The most important slop contributions to these are as follows - in the Z direction, the trays are positioned to ~1/4" roughly. Determining the tray Z-positions, and inputting this info to the star dB, is part of the standard offline calibrations every year. This algorithm will need to be modified for these trays given the lack of info from modules 1-4 and 29-32. OTOH, there will now be much more precise spacepoints available from the gems! - in the R-phi directions, there are several sources of 10-20 mil offsets (feet vertical gap, feet width, rail positioning, etc). Additional information can be found here: http://wjllope.rice.edu/~TOF/TOF/Documents/TOF_Tolerances.pdf As far as i can tell, the GEM fiducial is precisely centered in *phi* in a TOF tray. Richard has used the high-phi, low-eta, corner of a gem as his origin, and provided the position of this origin in the Z-phi plane with respect to GINO and/or the "big hole". Using the big hole corner to translate the numbers: dZ_origin = 1.589-0.525 = 1.064" From my CADD files of the TOF trays, this GEM origin in |Z| is thus nominally position 1 (|eta|~0): Z = 1.665 + 1.064 = 2.729" position 8 (|eta|~1): Z = 76.740 + 1.064 = 77.768" again - this is the high-phi, low-|eta| corner of the gems not their centroid (as e.g. geant would want). In R... 82.642 (top surface of TPC rail, 209.91cm) + (3.050-0.30) (bottom assy to upper pem nut) + (1.300-0.75) (top assy from lower through hole) ------------- 85.942" with richard's offset of 0.336", the R-center of the gem fiducial is then at 85.606" let me know if this is unclear or you need more details bill
