General description

The PANDA Micro-Vertex-Detector (MVD) is a tracking device for charged particles. It is the innermost sub-detector system of the target spectrometer. Main tasks of the MVD are:

• High vertex resolution for primary interaction vertex and secondary vertices of short lived particles and delayed decays
• Improvement of momentum resolution
• Additional input for particle-ID

A vertex resolution better than 100 micrometer is envisaged which allows e.g. a tagging of D-mesons (containing a c-quark) with decay lengths of several hundreds of micrometers. More details of the PANDA physics program and the performance of the detector can be found in the PANDA Physics Performance Report with a dedicated sub-chapter for the D-meson reconstruction at page 77-82. Further studies concerning the MVD are summarized in the PhD thesis of René Jäkel.

The MVD consist of four barrel layers in the central part and six disks in forward direction. Two types of silicon detectors will be used:

• Pixel detectors (highlighted red in figure 1) at the inner part
  (used within the two innermost barrel layers and all pixel disks)
• Double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSD) at the outer part
  (used within the two outermost barrel layers and at outer radii of the last two pixel disks)

The close position to the primary interaction zone demands radiation hard detectors and frontend electronics. For the full run time (10 years with duty cycle of 0.5) a radiation tolerance of around 10¹⁴ n_eqcm^-2 is required.

Experimental conditions

Figure 2: Expected particle distribution for different targets at highest beam momentum (15 GeV/c ).
Top: Entangled distribution with respect to polar angle and particle momentum.
Bottom: Overall angular distribution for the polar angle Theta.

The PANDA experiment will be performed with high-quality anti-proton beams over a broad momenta range from 1.5 GeV/c to 15 GeV/c . The envisaged peak luminosity is aimed to be 2×10³² cm ^-2 s^-1 for 10¹¹ stored anti-protons leading to an averaged nominal interaction rate of 2×10⁷ /s. More details can be found e.g. in the Magnets Technical Design Report. The beam-target interaction will be quasi continuous and inhibits a complex, non-ordered time structure. The maximum interaction rate on a short time scale will exceed the mean value significantly, in particular in case of using a pellet target.

Due to the fixed-target set-up an enhanced emission of highly energetic particles in forward directions is prominent in particular for light targets. Moreover, particles with momenta below 1 GeV/c originating from particle decays are uniformly distributed to nearly all polar angles (see figure 2).

Implementation

Figure 3: Implementation of the MVD pixel part with 4 different sensor sizes

For the pixel part of the MVD four sensors of different lengths are used. The design is based on a pixel cell size of 100×100 µm². Three different sensor types are implemented within the strip part, having either a rectangular shape for the barrel part or a trapezoidal one for the disk part. The rectangular sensors feature a stereo angle of 90°. In case of a trapezoidal shape a stereo angle of 15° is chosen. Guided by small angle scattering in the previous detector layers, a readout pitch of 130 µm was chosen for the rectangular sensors, while a smaller pitch of 70 µm is used in the trapezoidal sensor due to the smaller stereo angle which tends to worsen the spatial resolution.

The use of double-sided silicon strip detectors in the outer detector layers reduces the number of readout channels significantly. Finally, there are roughly 12 million pixel and 200,000 strip readout channels.

Detector integration

Figure 5: Detectror integration and support concept for the MVD

All MVD components are integrated within a global frame which has a three-point fixation to the global support structure of the central tracker. The detector modules of the barrel part are supported by individual staves which are then attached to an additional support structure for the pixel and the strip barrel layers. The pixel detector module for the forward pixel layers are glued to support half-disks. Spacers connect the different disk layers. For the strip disks a two subsequent sensors are forming a compact mechanical super-module which can be plugged to a support ring. More details are illustrated in figure 5. In figure 6 a schematics of the overall routing concept for the MVD is shown. It is evident that all routing paths must be carried out in upstream direction.

Detector simulation and performance

Figure 7: Simulation results: Coverage test (left) and mapping of material budget with a detailed MVD model

To check the physics performance of the detector and to optimize the engineering implementation a dedicated software is available. One part allows the conversion of CAD models into root geometries, thus allowing to implement detailed models into physics simulation. As a result, e.g. the coverage of the detector can be optimized aiming on a minimum of four hit-points inside the MVD ( figure 7, left). Moreover, a mapping of the material budget is possible ( figure 7, right). Moreover, more dedicated simulations have been performed including a full analysis of a physics benchmark channel. Some of the results are listed in the figures below.
