sPHENIX MAPS tracker discussion

["Liu, Ming Xiong" <mliu AT lanl.gov>]

Dear all, cc’d MVTX list,

 

After discussing with Marze, we would like to submit an additional poster to QM23, presenter will be determined soon.

 

“sPHENIX MVTX Pixel Detector Internal Alignment with AI-ML Approach”

 

The sPHENIX experiment has achieved a major milestone with the construction and installation of the cutting-edge three-layer Monolithic-Active-Pixel-Sensor (MAPS) based VerTeX detector (MVTX) in April 2023, in preparation for year-1 physics in May. The MVTX is the innermost tracking detector, boasting a remarkable spatial resolution of 5 um and covering 2.5-4.0 cm radially and a pseudorapidity range of |η| <2. With 432 ALPIDE sensors, each containing approximately 0.5M 27 um x 29 um pixels in an area of 1.5cm x 3.0cm, determining the position of each pixel in the sPHENIX global coordination presents a significant challenge. Our first step is to establish the relative position of each sensor in the local MVTX coordinates with an accuracy of better than 5 um. To this end, we have developed an AI-ML-based approach to determine the deviations of each sensor's position and orientation from the ideal geometry (dx, dy, dz) in translation and (dalpha, dbeta, dgama) in rotation. In this presentation, we will showcase the current status of the MVTX detector's internal alignment based on first-year commissioning data and discuss its impact on heavy flavor measurements.

 

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

 

Cheers,

Ming

Subject: [Sphenix-physics-l] Poster abstracts due on Friday April 21

 

Everyone who submitted a poster proposal is approved to submit a poster abstract for Quark Matter. Dennis Perepelitsa will be in touch to resolve the very few potential overlaps since there were 30 poster proposals, the full list is in the spreadsheet attached to the sPHENIX QM23 agenda page at https://indico.bnl.gov/event/19188/

We need to quickly write abstracts and circulate them to the relevant lists. Abstracts have to be approved by the Collaboration and the sPHENIX rule is that they have to be circulated a week before the submission deadline. Authors, please prepare an abstract and circulate it to the relevant group for approval (either the topical group or detector/software group) by noon Friday April 21. 

Best Regards
Marzia
