Mechanics of PANDA Backward End-Cap of the Electromagnetic calorimeter in the Phase 0 — •David Rodriguez Pineiro¹, Luigi Capozza¹, Alaa Dbeyssi¹, Alexander Greiner¹, Samet Katilmis¹, Frank Maas^1,2,3, Julian Moik¹, Oliver Noll¹, Paul Schöner¹, and Sahra Wolff^1,2 for the PANDA collaboration — ¹Helmholtz-Institut Mainz, Mainz, Germany — ²Institute of Nuclear Physics, Mainz, Germany — ³PRISMA Cluster of Excellence, Mainz, Germany

The PANDA experiment will be one of the key projects of the new accelerator facility FAIR in Darmstadt. With its mature detector system, it will be able to observe a variety of physical channels. Thus it will make a huge contribution to the understanding of the strong interaction. The electromagnetic process group (EMP) in Mainz is developing the backward end-cap (BWEC) of the electromagnetic calorimeter. This detector will be first installed at the Mainz Microtron facility (MAMI) for the Phase 0. Due to the lack of geometrical constraints around it a greater number of crystals will be used (640). Crystals will be mounted in submodules of 16 units, equipping them with 16, and 8 crystals assemblies which will be later used in the phase 1. Mass production for these components has been started. New cooling system will be developed which also will also serve as a test bench to be optimized for Phase 1.
