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 HFT is the vertex-detector upgrade for the STAR experiment at RHIC. It is replacing the decommissioned silicon drift detector (SVT) with active pixel technology close to the beam pipe in order to increase by about an order of magnitude the track-pointing (DCA) resolution. This will allow direct
