Particle Tracking with a Thin Pixel Telescope
The anticipated ILC physics program indicates that identification of heavy fermions with high efficiency and purity is of primary importance. The requirements in terms of track extrapolation accuracy are ≃ 5 μm ⊕ 10 μm pt (GeV) . The Vertex Tracker design and the sensor R&D is driven by this requirement. CMOS pixel sensors are an attractive option for the ILC Vertex Tracker. In particular, they...
متن کاملMeasurements of the top-quark mass using charged particle tracking
We present three measurements of the top-quark mass in the lepton plus jets channel with approximately 1:9 fb À1 of integrated luminosity collected with the CDF II detector using quantities with minimal dependence on the jet energy scale. One measurement exploits the transverse decay length of b-tagged jets to determine a top-quark mass of 166:9 þ9:5 À8:5 ðstatÞ AE 2:9ðsystÞ GeV=c 2 , and anoth...
متن کاملCHARGED PARTICLE TRACKING AND VERTEX DETECTION GROUP SUMMAFtY REPORT’
S-=-Y Charged particle tracking is essential in order to investigate the new physics expected at the SSC. The Tradting Group studied radiation damage and rate limitationa to tracking devices, vertex detectors, and central tracking. The Group concluded that silicon strips and large wire tracking chambers with small cells can probably survive at the design luminosity of 10j3 cmm2 see-‘; however, ...
متن کاملOPTIMAL DESIGN OF ARCH DAMS FOR FREQUENCY LIMITATIONS USING CHARGED SYSTEM SEARCH AND PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION
In recent years, the importance of economical considerations in the field of dam engineering has motivated many researchers to propose new methods for minimizing the cost of dames and in particular arch dams. This paper presents a method for shape optimization of double curvature arch dams corresponding to minimum construction cost while satisfying different constraints such as natural frequenc...
متن کاملCharged-particle emission tomography.
PURPOSE Conventional charged-particle imaging techniques - such as autoradiography - provide only two-dimensional (2D) black ex vivo images of thin tissue slices. In order to get volumetric information, images of multiple thin slices are stacked. This process is time consuming and prone to distortions, as registration of 2D images is required. We propose a direct three-dimensional (3D) autoradi...
