Silicon tracking detectors in high-energy physics
Since the fifties, semiconductors have been used as energy spectrometers, mainly in unsegmented ways. With the planar technique of processing silicon sensors in unprecedented precession, strip-like segmentation has allowed precise tracking and even vertexing, culminating in the early eighties with NA11 in the tagging of heavy flavor quarks—here the c-quark. With the later miniaturization of ele...
متن کاملCDF TRACKING DOC PUBLIC August Proposal for Intermediate Silicon Layers in CDF
The CDF SVXII silicon detector will provide coverage to j j In the region j j the combination of the SVXII detector and the Central Open Cell Tracker COT will yield precise D tracking with high e ciency and purity For j j it may be possible to perform D tracking with SVXII alone but in the absence of larger radius hit information the impact parameter resolution for such tracks will be too poor ...
متن کاملTracking and Alignment Performance of the LHCb silicon detectors
The LHCb experiment is primarily dedicated to the study of new physics through the heavy flavour decays. The tracking system of LHCb is composed of a silicon micro-strip vertex detector, two silicon strip tracker detectors and a set of straw-tube drift chambers in front of and behind a dipole generating a magnetic field. This system provides precise measure of the vertex position and high momen...
متن کاملNovel Data Acquisition System for Silicon Tracking Detectors
We have developed a novel data acquisition system for measuring tracking parameters of a silicon detector in a particle beam. The system is based on a commercial Analog-to-Digital VME module and a PC Linux based Data Acquisition System. This DAQ is realized with C++ code using object-oriented techniques. Track parameters for the beam particles were reconstructed using off-line analysis code and...
متن کاملThe CDF Silicon Vertex Tracker
Real time pattern recognition is becoming a key issue in many position sensitive detector applications. The CDF collaboration is building SVT: a specialized electronic device designed to perform real time track reconstruction using the silicon vertex detector (SVX II). This will strongly improve the CDF capability of triggering on events containing b quarks, usually characterized by the presenc...
