Hit reconstruction for the CBM-TRD — •Philipp Munkes for the CBM collaboration — Institut für Kernphysik, WWU Münster, Germany

The Compressed Baryonic Matter (CBM) experiment is a fixed target heavy-ion experiment at the SIS100 accelerator at FAIR. The CBM Transition Radiation Detector (TRD) is one of the key detectors to provide electron as well as charged fragment identification and tracking. The experiment is planned to be run with data taking in a free-streaming configuration with a software trigger. After the software trigger performs a fast evaluation of a timeslice, a self-contained portion of the data stream from the experiment, all data matching the trigger conditions is analyzed online and written to disk after the full reconstruction. Corresponding algorithms are currently being developed and tested in Frankfurt and Münster and tested on data recorded during various test beam campaigns of the CBM-TRD. This talk will present the current status of the CBM-TRD offline analysis framework and an evaluation of the various reconstruction algorithms employed therein. This work is supported by BMBF.
