ALICE实验中μ子前向跟踪器的性能研究

Performance Study for a Muon Forward Tracker in the ALICE Experiment

Antonio Uras

摘要:

ALICE是欧洲核子研究中心大型强子对撞机(CERN LHC)的一项实验,致力于研究重离子碰撞中夸克-胶子等离子体。2017年的升级计划设想对ALICE子探测器进行改进。μ子前向跟踪器(MFT)是鉴于这一升级的建议,其动机是增加μ子谱仪的物理潜力的可能性,并允许对整个ALICE物理学进行新的普遍感兴趣的测量。为了评估这一升级的可行性,正在AliRoot框架内进行MFT设置的详细模拟,重点是跟踪能力作为像素平面的数量,位置和大小的函数,以及相应的物理性能。在这份报告中,我们提出了在低多重性环境中的MFT性能的初步结果。

英文摘要:

ALICE is the experiment dedicated to the study of the quark gluon plasma in heavy-ion collisions at the CERN LHC. Improvements of ALICE sub-detectors are envisaged for the upgrade plans of year 2017. The Muon Forward Tracker (MFT) is a proposal in view of this upgrade, motivated both by the possibility to increase the physics potential of the muon spectrometer and to allow new measurements of general interest for the whole ALICE physics. In order to evaluate the feasibility of this upgrade, a detailed simulation of the MFT setup is being performed within the AliRoot framework, with emphasis on the tracking capabilities as a function of the number, position and size of the pixel planes, and the corresponding physics performances. In this report, we present preliminary results on the MFT performances in a low-multiplicity environment.
