Thermal Conductivity Measurement of the Silicon Sensor Support Frames of the CMS Tracker

The silicon sensor support elements of the CMS tracker detector are made of carbon fiber, epoxy resin and/or graphite material. A function of the supports is to remove heat generated in the sensors and in the frontend electronics. In this note we present the results of studies we have performed of t...

Sumario:The silicon sensor support elements of the CMS tracker detector are made of carbon fiber, epoxy resin and/or graphite material. A function of the supports is to remove heat generated in the sensors and in the frontend electronics. In this note we present the results of studies we have performed of the thermal conductivity of these support elements. Results are presented for various production batches.
