The Pixel Chamber project proposes to realize the first “solid-state bubble chamber” detector for measurements of charm and beauty. It is conceived as a stack of hundreds of thin and granular monolithic pixel sensors which provide a 3D image of all of the particles produced in proton-silicon interactions occurring inside the detector volume. In this paper we will discuss the high-precision tracking and vertexing performances, showing that the vertex resolution can be up to one order of magnitude better than state-of-the-art detectors like the LHCb one.

Abstract

The Pixel Chamber project proposes to realize the first “solid-state bubble chamber” detector for measurements of charm and beauty. It is conceived as a stack of hundreds of thin and granular monolithic pixel sensors which provide a 3D image of all of the particles produced in proton-silicon interactions occurring inside the detector volume. In this paper we will discuss the high-precision tracking and vertexing performances, showing that the vertex resolution can be up to one order of magnitude better than state-of-the-art detectors like the LHCb one.
