Capable of vetoing beam-gas interactions.
Able to locate beam-beam interaction vertices.
Abstract
We present the conceptual design for the miniBeBe detector proposed to be installed as a level-0 trigger for the TOF of the NICA-MPD. We discuss the design and the geometrical array of its sensitive parts, the read-out electronics as well as the mechanical support that is envisioned. We also present simulation results for p + p and Bi + Bi collisions to study its capabilities as a function of multiplicity both as a level-0 trigger for the TOF, as well as to serve as a beam-gas interaction veto and to locate the beam-beam interaction vertex.
