Strange particle reconstruction in the CBM experiment at FAIR — Ivan Kisel1,2,3, •Pavel Kisel1,3,4, Peter Senger3, Iouri Vassiliev3, and Maksym Zyzak3 for the CBM collaboration — 1Goethe-Universität Frankfurt — 2Frankfurt Institute for Advanced Studies — 3GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung GmbH — 4Joint Institute for Nuclear Research
The main goal of the CBM experiment at FAIR is to study the behavior of nuclear matter at very high baryonic density in which the transition to a deconfined and chirally restored phase is expected to happen.
One of the promising signatures of this new states are the enhanced production of multi-strange particles. The CBM detector is designed to measure such rare diagnostic probes with unprecedented precision and statistics.
Most of these particles have all decay modes with neutral daughter, which cannot be registered directly. The results of two independent approaches, conventional and missing mass methods, for reconstruction of these key CBM observables are presented.
