between the CERN's Control Room (CCR) and HCA442. This fibber is not
|
|
|
buried as deeply as the one used in LNGS. If we take that the fibber is
|
|
|
buried at 1m ,the temperature change could be of ~15C. This implies a
|
|
|
possible change on the fibber delay of 1.5ns.

|
|
Additionally the electronics could be affected by temperature changes.
|
|
|
We have tested in the lab that after heating with a hot gun the CTRI
|
|
|
(~80C), the reception delay increases by ~2ns. Notice that this is well
|
|
|
beyond the electronics working environment. We can expect seasonal delay
|
|
|
changes smaller than 2ns peak to peak.
