B. Schumm, 7/28/04 VICTORIA LC WORKSHOP TRACKING PARALLEL SESSIONS: GENERAL INTRODUCTION • FY 2004-5 LCRD funding for tracking R&D • $207K dealt out to five tracking groups (out of 12 proposals) • One of these groups originally applied for UCLC (NSF) funds but incorporated into DOE program • International connections expanding (SiLC, TPC group)
Convenor’s Hobby Horse: Simulation • What are segmentation/resolution requirements for forward tracking systems? • What degree of track-separation resolution is necessary for Eflow measurements? • How much tracking material can the calorimeter tolerate? • How many silicon layers do we need in order to reconstruct tracks? What if CAL • What are the requirements for resolution at low pt ? • What is the need for PID? • What role can intermediate tracking play? • etc… But much good work is underway…
