GEANT Simulation of the Radiation Dose for the Inner Tracking System of the ALICE Detector

A full GEANT simulation of the radiation dose expected for the Inner Tracking System (ITS) of the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider has been carried out. Heavy-ion collision events at a c.m. energy of 6 TeV/nucleon have been generated through the HIJING 1.35 event generator and injected in...

description A full GEANT simulation of the radiation dose expected for the Inner Tracking System (ITS) of the ALICE detector at the Large Hadron Collider has been carried out. Heavy-ion collision events at a c.m. energy of 6 TeV/nucleon have been generated through the HIJING 1.35 event generator and injected into the GEANT software replica of the ALICE detector, to simulate the planned scenario for the first ten years of data taking of the detector. Several factors contributing to the evaluation of the absorbed dose, including the different ITS implementation options, the effect of the magnetic field, the presence of the beam pipe, the finite size of the interaction point and the front absorber of the muon spectrometer are discussed.
