Title: Mechanical properties of D0 Run IIB silicon detector staves

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/15017256· OSTI ID:15017256

A proposed stave design for the D0 Run IIb silicon tracker outer layers featuring central cooling channels and a composite shell mechanical structure is evaluated for self-deflection and deflection due to external loads. This paper contains an introduction to the stave structure, a section devoted to composite lamina and laminate properties and finally a section discussing the beam deflections expected for assembled staves using these laminates.
