Description
The Compressed Baryonic Matter experiment (CBM) at FAIR is designed to measure at unprecedented interaction rates up to 10MHz to study extremely rare probes in nucleus-nucleus collisions with high precision. Hence, CBM will be equipped with fast and radiation hard detector systems, readout by a free-streaming data acquisition system, transporting data with up to 1TB/s to a large scale computer farm, which provides first level event reconstruction and selection. To test and optimize all components and their complex interplay including firmware and software under realistic conditions the CBM full-system test-setup mCBM ("mini-CBM") comprising pre-series components and final prototypes of all CBM detector subsystems and their read-out chains has been set-up at the present SIS18 facility of GSI/FAIR. The commissioning of mCBM has started with runs in March, November and December 2019, performed within the FAIR Phase-0 program. First results of the mCBM beam campaigns will be presented.
