Performance status for the endcap-time-of-flight upgrade of STAR — •Philipp Weidenkaff — Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg

As part of the FAIR phase 0 program, CBM-ToF MRPC modules have been installed as endcap-time-of-flight detectors in STAR for the beam-energy-scan II (BES II) program from 2019 to 2021. These detectors provide a major improvement to the particle identification capability of the experiment in the forward region (1.0 < η < 1.5), which is especially necessary for the fixed target program. In this talk, an evaluation of PID capabilities and physics performance improvements is shown. The results are based on the 2020 fixed target run.

The project is partially founded by BMBF 05P15VHFC1.
