论文摘要
未来的电子离子对撞机(EIC)将在广泛的Bjorken-X($ x_ {bj} $)和$ q^{2} $相位空间中探索几个基本问题。重型风味和喷气产物是精确研究核子/核结构的层析成像的理想探针,有助于解决质子自旋拼图并了解真空或QCD培养基中的Hadronizaton过程。由于EIC处的不对称碰撞,大多数最终状态辐射是在核子/核束(向前)方向上产生的。硅顶点/跟踪对于精确测量EIC的这些前向Hadron至关重要。本技术说明介绍了拟议的前向硅跟踪器(FST)和相关检测器性能的不同概念设计的详细信息。还讨论了使用评估的FST性能的相关的重风味和喷气研究。
The future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) will explore several fundamental questions in a broad Bjorken-x ($x_{BJ}$) and $Q^{2}$ phase space. Heavy flavor and jet products are ideal probes to precisely study the tomography of nucleon/nuclei structure, help solve the proton spin puzzle and understand the hadronizaton processes in vacuum or in the QCD medium. Due to the asymmetric collisions at the EIC, most of the final state hadrons are produced in the nucleon/nuclei beam going (forward) direction. A silicon vertex/tracking is critical to precisely measure these forward hadrons at the EIC. Details of different conceptual designs of the proposed Forward Silicon Tracker (FST) and the relevant detector performance are presented in this technical note. The associated heavy flavor and jet studies with the evaluated FST performance are discussed as well.
