The BABAR Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) consists of five layers of double sided, AC coupled silicon strip detectors. The detectors are readout with a custom IC, capable of simultaneous acquisition, digitization and reduction of data. The SVT is an essential part BABAR, and is able to reconstruct B meson decay vertices with a precision sufficient to measure time-dependent CP violating asymmetries at the PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider. The BABAR SVT has been taking colliding beam data since May 1999. This report will give an overview of the SVT, with emphasis on its running performance.

Abstract
The BABAR Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) consists of five layers of double sided, AC coupled silicon strip detectors. The detectors are readout with a custom IC, capable of simultaneous acquisition, digitization and reduction of data. The SVT is an essential part BABAR, and is able to reconstruct B meson decay vertices with a precision sufficient to measure time-dependent CP violating asymmetries at the PEP-II asymmetric e+e- collider. The BABAR SVT has been taking colliding beam data since May 1999. This report will give an overview of the SVT, with emphasis on its running performance.File in questo prodotto:
