The CMS pixel vertex detector

The experimental conditions for tracking detectors at small radii in the CMS experiment require the use of pixel detectors. This allows to deal with the high rates and gives the required precision for impact parameter measurements, needed for secondary vertex detection. In this paper an overview of...

Sumario:The experimental conditions for tracking detectors at small radii in the CMS experiment require the use of pixel detectors. This allows to deal with the high rates and gives the required precision for impact parameter measurements, needed for secondary vertex detection. In this paper an overview of the proposed design is given. The design of sensor and readout electronics are particularly emphasized. (4 refs).
