Position reconstruction methods for the CBM-TRD — •Felix Fidorra for the CBM collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, Universität Münster

The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment will be a fixed target heavy-ion experiment at FAIR. The CBM Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) is one of the key detectors to provide electron identification and charged particle tracking. The TRD will be built based on a Multi-Wire Proportional Chamber (MWPC) with a 5 mm drift region, and an irregular foam foil radiator. Concerning reconstruction of detector data, currently different methods are being evaluated and will be discussed in this talk. The application of the discussed methods on testbeam data from DESY electron beam will be shown. This work is supported by BMBF grant 05P19PMFC1.
