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 Belle experiment at KEK (Tsukuba, Japan) was inaugurated in 1999 and has delivered excellent physics results since then, which were, for example, recognized in the Nobel Prize award 2008 to Kobayashi and Masukawa. An overall luminosity of 895 fb Γ 1 has been recorded as of December 2008, and the
