CBM-TRD tracking performance studies for mCBM 2022 — •Axel Puntke for the CBM collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, WWU Münster

The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research (FAIR) will explore the QCD phase diagram in the region of very high net baryon densities. The Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) is an important subdetector of the final CBM experiment and is used to identify electrons at high momenta, contributes to tracking of particles and supports the identification of light nuclei via their specific energy loss.

For commissioning and performance measurements, the TRD takes part in the mCBM high-rate beam measurement campaigns at the SIS18 accelerator, which are part of the FAIR-Phase 0 program. Together with the TOF, STS, RICH and MuCH detectors, also TRD is connected to the full CBM DAQ, making data available for common analysis.

In this poster, TRD data QA as, e.g., a first tracking approach using straight tracks is presented and its results are shown.
