The silicon detector systems of the Compressed Baryonic Matter experiment
- The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment [1] is a fixed target heavy-ion experiment that will operate at the international Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) [2] now under construction in Darmstadt, Germany. The experiment intends to study rare probes, which are emitted from heavy ion collisions with a beam energy of 4 to 45 AGeV. A focus is laid to the short lived open charm particles and to particles decaying into di-lepton pairs. Handling the up to 107 Au+Au collisions/s required for generating those probes with sufficient statistics, as much as reaching the required sensitivity for observing them, forms a major challenge for the silicon detectors of the experiment. We present the concept and the development status of two central detectors of CBM, the CMOS pixel based micro vertex detector (MVD) and the micro-strip detector based silicon tracking system (STS). 22nd International Workshop on Vertex Detectors, 15-20 September 2013 Lake Starnberg, Germany
