@article{10902/25521, year = {2013}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10902/25521}, abstract = {We present the second in a series of studies into the forward tracking system for a future linear +e? collider with a center-of-mass energy in the range from 250 GeV to 3 TeV. In this note a number of specific challenges are investigated, which have caused a degradation of the tracking and vertexing performance in the forward region in previous experiments. We perform a quantitative analysis of the dependence of the tracking performance on detector design parameters and identify several ways to mitigate the performance loss for charged particles emitted at shallow angle.}, organization = {This work has been partly supported by Grants FPA2010-22163-C02-01 and FPA2010-21549-C04- 4 of the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness; and by the European Commission within Framework Programme 7 Capacities, Grant Agreement 262025 (AIDA).
