This paper explores the need for revising the CBM concept to enhance detector resolution and reduce material budget misfits, focusing on strategies to improve detector occupancy, impact parameter resolution, and cluster merging issues. The study emphasizes the importance of thin MAPS detectors for better resolution and track matching. The discussion includes calculations for impact parameter resolution, detector occupancy, and pointing precision to optimize detector placement and minimize material budget requirements. The conclusion highlights the necessity of intermediate pixel detectors for effective track matching between STS and MVD, emphasizing the significance of compact MVD design for improved track matching at high collision rates.

Why a revision? Sufficient S/B Harder impact parameter-cut Conclusion: “To measure c+ CBM needs thin (less 200m !) MAPS detectors.” M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia

Impact-parameter z(Secondary Vtx) Detector resolution? • A good detector resolution. • Detector needs to be better than a standard MVD with a first station at 10 cm and 200 µm silicon. • What does this means in terms of resolution? Primary Vertex Secondary Vertex Let’s calculate the impact parameter resolution of the MVD M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia

z1 = 10 cm Iouri’s “thick detector” IP-resolution [µm] Probable material budget z1 = 5 cm Required Material budget [X0] Iouri’s “thin detector” Impact parameter resolution We are multiple scattering dominated. We have to reach an IP-resolution of ~ 45 µm (Easy if first station at z=5 cm). Open: Can one put the first station to 5 cm? M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
Occupancy? C. Trageser, Bachelor Thesis (together with S.Seddiki) Hits / coll. / mm² A vertex detector at z = 5cm? Detector lifetime? @10 cm => 12.0 x 1011 min. bias collisions @ 5 cm => 4.4 x 1011 min. bias collisions (46 days at 105 coll/s) Open issue M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17.

Occupied detector surface Free detector surface ! Cluster merging? Detector Cluster Assume: We want a < 1% probability for cluster merging. How to estimate max. occupancy? M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
Cluster, 3x3 pixel pixel pitch = 15µm Occupied detector surface Free detector surface Station at 5cm => ~ 3.5 tracks / (106 µm²) => Pileup = 2 10 µs time resolution => maximum collision rate ~ 2 x 105/s Cluster merging? M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
Wrong charm signature Track matching probability Target MVD 1 z = 5 cm MVD 2 z= ??? Strip 1 z=30cm To avoid this scenario, pointing resolution of station 2 to station 1 must be sufficiently good. Assume: Search cone = cluster size (~ 20 µm) => PAmb < 1% M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
The minimum material budget of detector stations depends on their position. Accounting for this, we estimate the pointing precision from Station 2 => Station 1 Pointing resolution Station 2 has to be placed at z = ~ 8 cm => Hit density ~1.5 / mm² / coll Pos (station 2) [cm] What about track matching? Material budget [% X0] Detector – Position [cm] Station 3 has to be placed at z = ~ 11.5 cm, mat. budget = 700 µm Si equivalent Hit density: ~1.2 / mm² / coll. M.

Old Geometrie (with Deltas): Old Geometrie (no Deltas): Track matching from STS to MVD turns into a crucial issue. Probably: Intermediate detectors are needed (Hybrid pixels?) MVD – STS – Track matching z = 11.5 cm z = 7.5 cm 500 µm Si z = 5 cm STS 1, z = 30 cm Target MVD M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
Summary and conclusion • Higher, realistic material budget reduces the selectivity of the MVD • To remain sensitive for open charm, the MVD must be placed closer to the target • Close distance to target + delta electrons generate very high occupancy • Hit finding and track matching become crucial already at ~ 105 coll. /s • A “compact MVD” design is seems required for reasonable track matching in MVD • Intermediate pixel detectors might be needed for STS=> MVD track matching. • Assumptions made are conservative: • Hot spot occupancy is assumed • Option to detect/reject bad clusters or ambiguous tracks is ignored • Might clever algorithms allow for > 105 col/s operation? Needs to be simulated. • Neglect the occupancy from delta electrons in simulation is not justified. M. Deveaux, CBM collaboration meeting, 14.-17. Oct. 2008, Dubna, Russia
