sPHENIX tracking discussion

["Frawley, Anthony" <afrawley AT fsu.edu>]

Dear Itaru,

We have a group (LANL) who has a strong interest in a MAPS inner tracker, so this is of considerable interest to them.

There is no suggestion that you guys should spend time studying a MAPS tracker.

Cheers
Tony

Hi Tony,

  I don't think we (RIKEN group) are the one who look into the MAPs option by
spending our limited man power to do the study at the cost of slowing down
the development of the silicon strip. However,  I am open to *listen* to the
idea to make the outer tracker with MAPS from anybody who comes up with the
1) cost  and 2) schedule estimate in the level of reality of what we have
for the silicon strip solution. 

Regards,
-itaru

Hi All,

First, a reminder that the next sPHENIX tracking meeting will be November 20 (not tomorrow!).

For our meeting on November 20, we have arranged for Luciano Musa to call into the meeting at 9:00 am to give us a presentation about what would be involved for us to implement MAPS pixels in a tracker for PHENIX. This follows up on discussions with Leo Greiner in Santa Fe, where he talked about some cost comparisons of strips and MAPS pixels indicating that they would have similar cost.

In addition to the discussion with Luciano, which should be quite interesting, I will also be soliciting presentations from experts on all four tracking options.

Cheers
Tony
