The CDF SVX: A silicon vertex detector for a hadron collider

Description

A silicon microstrip vertex detector is being constructed as an upgrade to the CDF detector at the Fermilab Tevatron-1 anti pp collider. This device, which is designed to operate in the hadron collider environment, should allow the tagging of long-lived heavy flavors produced in anti pp collisions. The mechanical and electronic design of this device are described in this paper. (orig.)
