Poster: Time Projection Chamber TPC for sPHENIX

sPHENIX is a new detector proposed to explore the quark-gluon plasma formed
in heavy ion collisions through the measurements of jets and upsilons at
RHIC. This experiment will feature a superconducting solenoid magnet capable
of 1.5 Tesla which was formerly used by the BaBar experiment. sPHENIX is
composed by a charged particle tracking system together with an
electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters spanning full azimuthal coverage
and 2 units of central pseudo-rapidity. The central part of its tracking
system will consist of a state of the art Time Projection Chamber TPC with a
GEM-based readout. The tracking system is designed to provide sufficient
resolution (100 MeV/c^2 sigma at 9GeV/c^2 mass) to separate the upsilon
states. The current status of the ongoing R&D and simulation studies
performed will be presented here.
