A new inner layer silicon strip detector for D0

Journal Article ·
OSTI ID:903139
The D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron is building a new inner layer detector to be installed inside the existing D0 Silicon Microstrip Tracker (D0SMT). The Layer 0 detector is based on R&D performed for the RunIIb silicon upgrade that was canceled in the fall of 2003. Layer 0 will be installed inside the {approx}2.2 cm radius opening available in the D0SMT support structure with the detector in the collision hall. Layer 0 will reduce the radius of first sampling from 2.7 to 1.6 cm and substantially improve on the radiation hardness of the D0SMT, insuring that the silicon tracker remains viable through Tevatron RunII.
