Simulation of the GEM central tracker performance using GEANT

Description

The GEM (Gamma Electron Muon) central tracker (one of the proposed detectors for the Superconducting Supercollider (SSC)) has been simulated using the high energy physics Monte Carlo code GEANT. The performance of the GEM central tracker in terms of momentum, impact parameter, and z vertex resolution has been determined. The resolutions will be presented for both the full tracker which includes a silicon portion and an IPC portion and for the 1034 configuration which is comprised of only IPC chambers. The resolution of electrons vs. muons will also be presented
