A Heavy-Flavor Tracker for STAR

We propose to construct a heavy flavor tracker for the STAR experiment at RHIC in order to measure the elliptic flow of charmed hadrons in the low pt region and identify B-meson contributions in the region pt > 4 GeV/c. In this talk, we will present the design of the detector in-depth and its exp...

description We propose to construct a heavy flavor tracker for the STAR experiment at RHIC in order to measure the elliptic flow of charmed hadrons in the low pt region and identify B-meson contributions in the region pt > 4 GeV/c. In this talk, we will present the design of the detector in-depth and its expected performance as studied in detailed simulations and analytic calculations. Physics potentials of the detector will also be discussed.
