Silicon Detectors for the Large Prototype TPC test setup at DESY
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Linear Collider TPC collaboration constructed a Large Prototype TPC (LPTPC) which is now installed at the EUDET facility, in DESY. The SiLC-collaboration (Silicon for the Linear Collider) will install position sensitive silicon strip sensors outside the field cage of the LPTPC, to provide precise tracking information. The data acquisition system (DAQ) is an adapted CMS readout system. The silicon modules are tested and ready to be installed, the mechanical module support and the DAQ system are in preparation.

Momentum Resolution Studies for a TPC - Based Central Tracker
This note describes a study on the momentum resolution of the TPC-based central tracker design which will be included in the ECFA/DESY conceptual design report (CDR) for the proposed DESY 500 GeV electron-positron linear collider. The study found it to be likely that the central tracker could achieve a momentum resolution of approximately 10 −4 (GeV/c) −1 , particularly if a layer of silicon mi...
متن کاملFirst test of a prototype CBM silicon detector system in a proton beam at GSI
In September 2008, the CBM collaboration performed the first essential test of two prototype detector systems in a 2.5 GeV proton beam at GSI. The experiment at the HTD beam line in Cave C comprised prototype micro-strip detectors of the Silicon Tracking System, and gas-electronmultiplier (GEM) detectors. The detectors were coupled to a self-triggering front-end electronics and data acquisition...
متن کاملThe Silicon Tracking System of CMS
The paper describes the large silicon tracking system of CMS, one of the two general purpose detectors planned at the Large Hadron Collider of CERN. The system consists of three layers of silicon microstrip detectors instrumenting the interaction region as part of the Inner Tracking Detector of CMS. The expected performance of the system is discussed together with preliminary test beam results ...
متن کاملHigh Magnetic Field Performance of a GEM-TPC
A large volume time projection chamber (TPC) has been proposed as main tracking device for a detector at a future linear ee collider. Gas electron multipliers (GEMs) are studied as potential replacement of the conventional wire based gas amplification system of TPCs. This talk presents recent results from R&D activities with a small GEM-TPC prototype. The spatial resolution was measured for dif...
متن کاملAn All-Solid State Central Tracker for the Proposed DESY Electron-Positron Linear Collider
This report describes an all-solid state central tracker which is intended for use in a detector at the proposed DESY 500 GeV electron-positron linear collider or a similar accelerator. The precise position measurements from position-sensitive silicon detectors give the tracker an outstanding momentum resolution for high momentum tracks: σp/p 2 = 3.6× 10 (GeV/c) for tracks perpendicular to the ...
