Development for the Belle II vertex detector upgrade with depleted monolithic active pixel sensors

Le résumé fourni par la source

The vertex detector upgrade project for the Belle II experiment, based on CMOS depleted monolithic active pixel sensor technology, is planned to be carried out in conjunction with the major modification of the interaction region of the SuperKEKB collider during Long Shutdown 2 from 2032 to 2034. The MAPS sensor, named OBELIX currently under development, is derived from the successor to TJ-Monopix2, with modifications implemented to ensure compatibility with the Belle II trigger system. The new vertex detector consists of two layers of four self-supported consecutive OBELIX sensors, and three layers of discrete OBELIX sensors mounted on mechanical support structures with readout flex circuits attached to the sensors. The detector is arranged cylindrically around the beam pipe at radii ranging from 14 mm to 140 mm. The minimization of the material budget is required in order to enhance physics performance. We present an overview of the project and its latest developments, with particular emphasis on the development of low-material-budget flex circuits employing aluminum conductors.
