Tracking and Vertexing with a Thin CMOS Pixel Beam Telescope
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present results of a study of charged particle track and vertex reconstruction with a beam telescope made of four layers of 50 μm-thin CMOS monolithic pixel sensors using the 120 GeV protons at the FNAL Meson Test Beam Facility. We compare our results to the performance requirements of a future ee linear collider in terms of particle track extrapolation and vertex reconstruction accuracies.

Resolution studies with the DATURA beam telescope
Detailed studies of the resolution of a EUDET-type beam telescope are carried out using the DATURA beam telescope as an example. The EUDET-type beam telescopes make use of CMOS MIMOSA 26 pixel detectors for particle tracking allowing for precise characterisation of particle sensing devices. A profound understanding of the performance of the beam telescope as a whole is obtained by a detailed ch...
متن کاملParticle 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 کاملA Study of Monolithic CMOS Pixel Sensors Back-thinning and their Application for a Pixel Beam Telescope
This paper reports results on a detailed study of charge collection and signal-tonoise performance of CMOS monolithic pixel sensors before and after back-thinning and their application in a pixel beam telescope for the ALS 1.5 GeV e− beam test
متن کاملSilicon 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 کاملInvestigation of thin n-in-p planar pixel modules for the ATLAS upgrade
The ATLAS experiment will undergo a major upgrade of the tracker system in view of the high luminosity phase of the LHC (HLLHC) foreseen to start around 2025. Thin planar pixel modules are promising candidates to instrument the new pixel system, thanks to the reduced contribution to the material budget and their high charge collection efficiency after irradiation. New designs of the pixel cells...
