The Heavy Flavor Tracker at the STAR experiment is a set of silicon tracking detectors at the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider at Brookhaven National Laboratory that is designed to extend the STAR measurement capabilities in the heavy flavor domain. This system took data in Au+Au collisions, p+p and p+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=$200 GeV at RHIC, during the period...
The Silicon Vertex Tracker is a central tracker built for the CLAS12 experiment aiming at measuring the momentum and reconstructing the vertices of charged particles emerging from the target. The system is designed to operate at a luminosity of 1035 cm-2s-1 and to have a momentum resolution of 5% for 1 GeV tracks. The tracker is centered inside 5T solenoid magnet and has 33792 channels of...
The Gigatracker is a hybrid silicon pixel detector developed for the NA62 experiment at CERN, which aims at measuring the branching fraction of the ultra-rare kaon decay K$^{+} \rightarrow \pi^{+} \nu \overline{\nu}$ at the CERN SPS. The detector has to track particles in a 75 GeV/c hadron beam with a flux reaching 1.3 MHz/mm$^2$ and provide single-hit timing with better than 200 ps r.m.s....
