Establishment of the electron identification system for vector meson measurement at J-PARC
Electron pairs from light vector mesons have been measured to study the chiral symmetry restoration in hot and dense matter. The J-PARC E16 experiment aims to measure the di-electron decays of vector mesons, in particular mesons, with the world’s highest statistics to investigate their mass spectrum in nuclei. We developed two-stage electron identification detectors, consisting of a lead-glass electromagnetic calorimeter and a gas Cherenkov detector equipped with GEMs, called a hadron blind detector. In June 2024, we completed all planned commissioning runs with a full detector acceptance for the first physics run. We have succeeded in obtaining a clear energy–momentum correlation of the electron and positron tracks, demonstrating the establishment of the electron identification technique in a high-rate environment.
期刊介绍:
Section A of Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research publishes papers on design, manufacturing and performance of scientific instruments with an emphasis on large scale facilities. This includes the development of particle accelerators, ion sources, beam transport systems and target arrangements as well as the use of secondary phenomena such as synchrotron radiation and free electron lasers. It also includes all types of instrumentation for the detection and spectrometry of radiations from high energy processes and nuclear decays, as well as instrumentation for experiments at nuclear reactors. Specialized electronics for nuclear and other types of spectrometry as well as computerization of measurements and control systems in this area also find their place in the A section.
Theoretical as well as experimental papers are accepted.
