Incl. delta electrons from the target

Motivation

Efficient STS – MVD Track matching is essential for good open charm reconstruction!

Can the MVD, STS and L1-Tracking provide a sufficient tracking efficiency?

Approach:

• Use the newly available MVD-Digitizer• Study tracking quality including delta-electrons and pile-up• Benchmark different geometries according to:

• Tracking efficiency• p-resolution• Impact parameter resolution• Number of tracks passing the single track selection cuts

Simulation Setup

Global simulation setup:

CbmRoot JUN 09MVD (with Digitizer), STS (with Digitizer), other detectors absent

Simulated geometries:

STS => Standard geometry JUN 09

MVD => Two options simulated:

2 Stations (z= 10, 20 cm; Thick: 500 µm)Inner radius: 5.5 mm (z=10 cm), 10.5 mm (z=20 cm)

3 Stations (z= 5,10,15cm; Thick: 300, 500, 600 µmInner radius: 5.5 mm (z=5,10 cm), 10.5 mm (z=15 cm)

Collision system:

Au-Au @25 AGeV

Page 5: MVD Simulations with Digitizer

Simulation Setup

MVD-Digitizer Settings:

Pixel pitch = 18.4 µmADC = 12 bit Threshold = 1 ElectronNoise = 15 ElectronsFake hit generator = Off

Cuts:

Ideal readout

Pixels with signal charge receive noiseBUT: No fake hits are created due to noise

Long tracks More than 7 hits in MVD + STSp > 1 GeV

Cluster merging as function of pile-up

Up to 20% of all clusters are merged> 80% of all merged clusters are in the delta electron region

Summary and conclusion

The impact of pile-up on the MVD-tracking was studied

We observe:

• Few impact on momentum resolution• A substantial impact on tracking efficiency:

97 % => 87 % (> 1GeV “long” tracks)• A decreased eff. of the PVChi-cut:

97% rejection => 88% rejection (> 1GeV “long” tracks)

Our results show few preferences for a specific detector design (yet)

Conclusion: Shrinking MVD tracking efficiency is an issue.Substantial room for optimization, needs interaction with tracking experts

Next steps:• Repeat study with higher statistics• Study detector layouts in a systematic way• Estimate SvZ-Resolution• Start a study on open charm reconstruction• Optimize hit finding

Motivation

Good track finding is essential for open charm reconstruction.

• To find a optimized Geometry for the MVD– Check Tracking Efficiency– Check Efficiency of the cuts– Different pile up scenarios
