Tracking Performances of Several Front-Absorber Designs

The tracking performances of the ALICE forward muon spectrometer are investigated for several front-absorbers designs. The obtained mass resolution is compared to the one of the absorber proposed in the LOI. Out of punchthrough considerations, two absorbers compositions, including a Carbon+Concrete...

description The tracking performances of the ALICE forward muon spectrometer are investigated for several front-absorbers designs. The obtained mass resolution is compared to the one of the absorber proposed in the LOI. Out of punchthrough considerations, two absorbers compositions, including a Carbon+Concrete sandwich design, allow to reach the requested mass resolution for the Y's. Almost identical behaviours are observed versus rapidity and transverse momentum of resonances for both new candidates. These proposed designs improve the mass resolution performances and could stand as suitable absorber options for the forward muon spectrometer of ALICE. The Carbon+Concrete absorber has been retained for the Technical Proposal [1].
