H8: data sample 1 month of data taken with half “ATLAS like” gas fluxes Runs collected in the period 19/7-22/8 (35 days – 830 hours) have been analyzed: corresponding to 14 Runs of ~100300 K events
each. Trigger Hodoscope Runs taken under stable operating conditions:
Gas: Ar (93%) , CO2 (7%) at 3 bar absolute Gas flow: 60 bar l/h BIL (~0.9 changes/day) 120 bar l/h BML (~1.2 changes/day) 180 bar l/h BOL (~1.0 changes/day) HV : 3080 V
BML1 has the multilayer 2 with complete parallel gas distribution Software: ATHENA version 6.6.0 used to get the MDT digits PAW ntuples and ROOT trees available on lxcalc (and lxplus)

H8: analysis method – max tdrift MDT spectra fitted with a double
Fermi-Dirac function + constant to extract t0 and tmax
Drift time computed for the six barrel chamber (12 multilayers):
tdrift = tmax – t0
Typical statistical errors for runs with larger statistic (~300k evts):
error on t0 < 0.2 ns error on tmax ~ 1 ns error on tdrift ~ 1 ns
t0 = P5

Explanation of the Serial Effect
The “serial effect” can be explained with a water contamination due to the NORYL end-plug permeability: water vapor accumulates in the gas mixture during its flow along the series.
The estimated equivalent water flux is: EHP(bar l/day)/EP 0.0002 for all the chambers. The value is in good agreement with an approx. estimate based on NORYL-GFN3 characteristics: WF(bar·l/day)/EP = 0.000227
The impact of the “serial effect” on the single tube space resolution is negligible

1) use the GARFIELD simulation to predict the impact of water vapor contamination on the MDT drift properties: tdrift/ H2O= 6.5ns/100ppm
2) translate the measured water content into an equivalent water flux per end-plug (EHF/EP)
3) estimate the impact of the serial effect on single tube space resolution

MC description matches
the experimental data
simulated spectra can give hints on chamber’s behavior, allowing to improve performance and to have a better understanding of the detector r(t) relations can be automatically derived
one relation for each tube (instead of one per chamber) no need of any hypothesis “ad hoc” (the effects of -rays, cluster position fluctuations, … , are already taken into account by the simulation)

Conclusions
We performed a systematic study of the drift behavior of the 6 barrel MDT chambers, using the H8 2003 test beam data.
The response of the chambers appears to be uniform and stable in time. We deeply investigated the “serial effect”, that can be quantitatively
explained in terms of water contamination.

We are planning to tune the GARFIELD simulation in order to obtain simulated time spectra as similar as possible to real data.
The following steps will depend on the success of the previous item. r(t) relations tracking
