The CDF silicon vertex tracker
Conference

OSTI ID:8804
The Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) is presently being built as part of CDF upgrades. It is the online tracker which will reconstruct 2D tracks using information from the Silicon Vertex Detector (SVXII) and the Central Outer Chamber (COT). The precision measurement of the track impact parameter will allow to select high statistics b samples at trigger level and attack the study of CP violation in the b sector (i.e. in the B0d {yields} {pi}+{pi}- decay) and of B0s mixing. We discuss the overall architecture, algorithms and hardware implementation of the system.
