An Integrated Tracker for STAR [PDF]
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2006 The STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider RHIC studies the new state of matter produced in relativistic heavy ion collisions and the spin structure of the nucleon in collisions of polarized protons. In order to improve the capabilities for heavy flavor measurements and the reconstruction of charged vector bosons an upgrade of the ...

Universal Verification Platform and Star Simulator for Fast Star Tracker Design
Sensors, 2021 Developing star trackers quickly is non-trivial. Achieving reproducible results and comparing different algorithms are also open problems. In this sense, this work proposes the use of synthetic star images (a simulated sky), allied with the standardized ...

A Heavy Flavor Tracker for STAR [PDF]
, 2005 We propose to construct a Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) for theSTAR experiment at RHIC. The HFT will bring new physics capabilities toSTAR and it will significantly enhance the physics capabilities of theSTAR detector at central rapidities. The HFT will ensure that STAR willbe able to take heavy flavor data at all luminosities attainablethroughout the ...

Selection of Design Parameters in Optical System of Star Tracker for a Satellite [PDF]
Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1999 In order to develop star trackers for a satellite in our country we studied selection procedure of optical parameters. For logical selection of the optical parameters, we simulated the entire processes in which star lights imaged on a CCD sensor were ...
