The UNH Silicon Vertex Tracker Project

The UNH Nuclear Physics group will be building a test facility for the Silicon Vertex Tracker (SVT) for CLAS12. The current plan is for the SVT to be build up of 4 concentric layers. Each layer will provide x and y information from two silicon strip detectors, each detector with a different "pitch" for the strips. A scattered particle will thus go through 8 layers of silicon plus the support backing and the detector will provide 4 x,y,z points to compute a track.
