  1. 142. STAR Upgrade Plan for the Coming Decade
    Prof. Huan Huang (UCLA, For the STAR Collaboration)
    17/08/2012, 14:00
    Experiment upgrades, new facilities, and instrumentation
    Oral Presentation
    The STAR Collaboration is scheduled to complete the Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) and the Muon Telescope Detector (MTD) upgrades by 2014. These detectors will greatly enhance the STAR physics capability to measure heavy quark collectivity and correlations using topologically reconstructed charm hadrons and heavy quark decay e-muon correlations. In addition, measurements of the quarkonium muon...

  2. 353. The sPHENIX Barrel Upgrade: Jet Physics and Beyond
    John Haggerty (Brookhaven National Laboratory)
    17/08/2012, 14:20
    Oral Presentation
    The past decade of heavy ion physics at RHIC has produced many surprising discoveries and puzzles. Currently the experiments at the LHC are providing a first look at things to come: a burgeoning program for studying the Quark Gluon Plasma with reconstructed jets. The PHENIX collaboration is in the process of developing a long term plan involving a series of aggressive upgrades designed to...

  3. 494. Upgrade of the ALICE Experiment
    Thomas Peitzmann (University of Utrecht (NL))
    17/08/2012, 14:40
    Oral Presentation
    At the LHC the ALICE experiment is taking data in p+p, p+A and A+A collisions, which is providing unique insights on strongly interacting matter at an unprecedented energy density. Many important questions in heavy-ion physics will, however, remain unanswered in this first running period up to 2017. Only by increasing the luminosity beyond 10^27 and exploiting recent advances in technology...

  4. 325. The sPHENIX Forward Upgrade
    Joseph Seele (RBRC)
    17/08/2012, 15:00
    Oral Presentation
    During 12 years of operations, PHENIX has discovered a strongly coupled QGP and studied many of its basic properties, examined effects in cold nuclear matter, measured the gluon helicity structure of the proton, and probed the proton transverse spin structure. PHENIX is planning a large upgrade for the next decade, sPHENIX, to answer many of the questions spurred by our discoveries during the...

  5. 495. The ALICE Inner Tracking System Upgrade
    Roy Crawford Lemmon (Engin. & Phys. Sci. Research Coun. (GB))
    17/08/2012, 15:20
    Oral Presentation
    The major long-term goal of the ALICE experiment at the LHC is to provide precision measurements of the properties of the Quark-Gluon Plasma, the state of deconfined matter produced in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. Experiments towards the characterisation of strongly interacting matter at high density will need to focus on rare probes and the study of their collective properties and...

  6. 105. The Compressed Baryonic Matter Experiment at FAIR - physics at SIS-100 and SIS-300
    Johann Heuser (GSI - Helmholtzzentrum fur Schwerionenforschung GmbH (DE))
    17/08/2012, 15:40
    Experiment upgrades, new facilities, and instrumentation
    Oral Presentation
    The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) Experiment will explore the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter in the region of high net baryon densities. The experiment is laid out to process nuclear collisions at rates up to 10 MHz, the highest in the field. A unique wide spectrum of observables will be accessible, including rarest probes like hadrons containing charm quarks, or multi-strange...
