Abstract: | As a part of the upgrades for the PHENIX detector at RHIC,a silicon vertex tracking detector is planned. This detector will
consist of two pixel layers followed by two strip-pixel layers in the barrel region,an d four mini-strip layers in the endcap
region. As a part of the development phase of the vertex detector, we have set up three sensor testing facilities at Brookhaven
National Laboratory, at State University of New York, Stonybrook, and at University of New Mexico to characterize the preproduction
sensors, and develop our testing and quality assurance plans. Preliminary results from these test are presented here.
Presented in the Poster Session “Future Experiments and Facilities” at the 18th International Conference “Quark Matter 2005”,
Budapest, Hungary, 4–9 August 2005. |
