Project: Charged-Particles Reconstruction at Muon Colliders: 3D Sensor Charge Digitization Model
Muon colliders are promising candidates for future experiments due to their ability to reach multi-TeV collision energies with more compact and cheaper designs. However, muon decays produce a large beam-induced background (BIB). This project aims to successfully implement the hybrid 3D pixel sensor digitization model into the Key4Hep-based muon collider software stack. Investigation of hit timing capabilities and detector occupancy in the presence of BIB can improve ”noise” rejection in the innermost layers of the detector with 3D sensor geometry.
