Precise online tracking for high energy physics event selection at CDF

Ziel

This project is a 'second generation' real time tracking system for the CDF experiment. We have developed the 'first generation' and we are now working on the upgrade. Our project consists in the exploitation and optimization of the upgrade to improve as much as possible the CDF physics program. The CDF experiment is located at the Tevatron hadron collider at Fermilab, a USA national laboratory near Chicago.At present, the Tevatron is the particle accelerator providing the highest center-of-mass energy in the world. It accelerates protons and antiprotons, and then makes them collide head-on inside the CDF detector. The CDF detector is used to study the products of such collisions. The beginning of the XXI century appears to be very exciting for high energy physics: the Tevatron at Fermilab and later on the new powerful hadron collider, the LHC at CERN (the European laboratory located near Geneva), may give conclusive answers in many sectors of fundamental physics, e.g. super-symmetry, Higgs boson, and CP-symmetry violation. This project will have an important impact on this high energy physics program.
