CDF Detector Simulation Framework and Performance
نویسندگان
چکیده
The CDF detector simulation framework is integrated into an AC++ application used to process events in the CDF experiment. The simulation framework is based on the GEANT3 package. It holds the detector element geometry descriptions, allows configuration of digitizers at run-time and manages the generated data. The design is based on generic programming which allows for easy extension of the simulation framework. The overall design, details of specific detector components and in particular the performance of the CDF simulation compared to collider data are described.

متن کاملCdf Run Ii Discovery Reach for Neutral Mssm Higgs Bosons via P P ! B B' ! B Bb B
In this paper we examine the CDF Run II discovery reach for neutral Higgs bosons via the process p p ! b b' ! b bb b. The signature is a four jet nal state with at least three b-tagged jets. Signal and background acceptances are estimated using the CDF Run I detector performance. b tagging eeciencies and fake tag rates are evaluated with new Run II increased detector geometrical acceptances. To...
متن کاملInitial experience with the CDF layer 00 silicon detector
We report on initial experience with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) Layer 00 Detector. Layer 00 is an innovative, low-mass, silicon detector installed in CDF during the upgrade for Run 2A of the Tevatron. Noise pickup present during operation at CDF is discussed. An event-by-event pedestal correction implemented by CDF is presented. This off-line solution prevents L00 from being used i...
متن کاملGrid Computing in the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) scientific experiment
CDF detector measures the particles produced in proton – anti proton collisions at the Tevatron operating at s = 1.96 TeV The are two experiments at the Tevatron and this paper will describe the grid computing for CDF. The CDF detector is comprised of a tracking system located closest to the collision point inside of a solenoid magnet. Outside of the solenoid magnet, calorimeter detectors used ...
متن کاملStatus and performance of the CDF Run II silicon detector
The CDF silicon detector is one of the largest silicon detectors in operation. It has a total of 722,432 electronic channels, and it covers a sensor surface area of 6m. The detector has been operating reliably for five years, and it has recorded 1:5 fb 1 of data. This article discusses experiences of operating such a large, complex system as well as the longevity of the detector. r 2007 Elsevie...
