Particle Tracking at High Rate Experiments

The goal of the seminar is to discuss particle tracking systems at current and future high rate experiments. We want to cover various aspects of particle tracking, ranging from the detector devices, to detector and tracking systems, trigger concepts as well as reconstruction and analsyis techniques. These aspects will be put into perspective by discussing them in the context of different high rate experiments, e.g.

• ALICE
• ATLAS
• Belle II
• CBM
• LHCb
• HADES
• Mu3e
• NA62
• ...

Prerequisite for this seminar is the Particle Physics Master Course or a Bachelor Thesis in particle physics. The seminar consists of the oral presentation (40 minutes presentation + 20 minutes for discussion) of a research topic and a write-up of the talk (<= 10 pages, in the style of conference proceedings). (see Master Modulhandbuch) 

Please register through the Übungsgruppenverwaltung and contact one of the organisers. The distribution of talks will be done on a first come first served basis.
