The PHENIX experiment is planning to make a new silicon vertex tracker (VTX) for a detector upgrade to enhance the capability of detecting open heavy flavors. In this paper, the conceptual design of VTX and physics programs with VTX are introduced and then current R&D activities in PHENIX are presen
The construction of the Silicon Pixel Detector is starting in spring 2009 as project of the RHIC-PHENIX Silicon Vertex Tracker (VTX) upgrade at the Brookhaven National Laboratory. For the construction, we have developed a fine pitch and low material readout bus as the backbone parts of the VTX. In t
