Concept for a RICH detector for the CBM experiment at the future accelerator facility FAIR at GSI in Darmstadt — •Claudia Höhne — GSI Darmstadt

At the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research in Darmstadt (FAIR) a dedicated heavy-ion experiment investigating the properties of highly Compressed Baryonic Matter is proposed (CBM). Investigating heavy-ion collisions at beam energies from 15 to 35 AGeV, its goal will be to explore the QCD phase diagram in the region of moderate temperatures but very high baryon densities. A key observable of the physics program will be a precise measurement of low-mass vector mesons in their leptonic decay channel.

The essential experimental tool for identifying the decay electrons will be a gaseous RICH detector positioned after a system of silicon tracking stations which are located inside a magnetic dipole field. The concept of this RICH detector including first simulations will be introduced and discussed.
