After ten years of successful operation, the Belle experiment at KEK (Tsukuba, Japan) will be completed by the end of 2009. Thereafter, a major upgrade of the KEK-B machine is foreseen until 2013, aiming at a final luminosity of 8 x 10^35 / (cm^2 s), which is about 40 times higher than the present peak value. Consequently, also the Belle experiment needs to be changed and the Silicon Vertex...

The planned luminosity upgrade of the KEKB flavor factory requires extensive detector upgrades to cope with the design luminosity of 8 x 10^35 / cm^2s. Of critical importance here is a new silicon pixel vertex tracker, which will significantly improve the decay vertex resolution, crucial for time dependent CP violation measurements. This new detector will consist of two layers of DEPFET pixel...
