Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) : A new inner tracking device at STAR
Jonathan Bouchet (for the STAR Collaboration)
TL;DR
The Heavy Flavor Tracker (HFT) at STAR is a new inner detector designed to measure charmed hadron properties like nuclear modification factor and elliptic flow at low transverse momentum by detecting displaced vertices.
Contribution
Introduction of the HFT as a novel inner tracking device enabling precise measurements of charmed hadrons at low pT.
Findings
Successful measurement of charmed hadron displaced vertices
Enhanced capability to study low pT charm physics
Improved data for nuclear modification factors and flow
Abstract
The HFT, a new inner tracking detector for STAR, aims to measure the charmed hadron nuclear modification factor as well as their elliptic flow to the low region (0.5 GeV/c) by measuring the displaced vertices of charmed particles.
