Status of the open charm physics program of NA61/SHINE* — •Michael Deveaux for the NA61/SHINE collaboration — Goethe Universität Frankfurt am Main
NA61/SHINE aims to study the production of open charm in A+A collision systems at high CERN SPS energies. To do so, the experiment was upgraded with the so-called Small Acceptance Vertex Detector (SAVD). The SAVD consists of four layers of 50 µ m thin MIMOSA-26 CMOS sensors and incorporates the electronics of the prototype of the CBM Micro Vertex Detector and the thin carbon fibre ladders developed for the ALICE ITS. The detector was operated successfully during the regular Xe+La data taking of NA61/SHINE in 2017.
We discuss the detector performance and show preliminary results on D0 relying on data from a 150A GeV/c Pb+Pb commissioning run carried out in December 2016. Moreover, we give an outlook toward the construction of a full, Large Acceptance Vertex Detector (LAVD).
