  • Abstract
    Two layers of Si pixel detectors are foressen in the proposed layout of the ALICE experiment at LHC. Their main task is to provide secondary vertex detection capability for the study of flavour production in nucleus-nucleus collisions at LHC. We illustrate the requirements for the ALICE pixel system, present a concept for its implementation and discuss the expected performance for the detection of charm and strange decay vertices.
