EIC Physics from An All-Silicon Tracking Detector

Nuclear Experiment 2021-02-17 v1 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

The proposed electron-ion collider has a rich physics program to study the internal structure of protons and heavy nuclei. This program will impose strict requirements on detector design. This paper explores how these requirements can be satisfied using an all-silicon tracking detector, by consideration of three representative probes: heavy flavor hadrons, jets, and exclusive vector mesons.
