Abstract
We have built a Silicon Pad Detector for experiment E-835 at Fermilab. The detector general features are (a) compactness; (b) good resolutio n on the longitudinal track coordinate (along the beam); (c) capabilit y of delivering pixel information; (d) full geometrical acceptance in the solid angle covered by the experiment; (e) good transparency; and (f) fast multiplexed read out. These characteristics will prove partic ularly effective to identify and reconstruct the Phi Phi --> 4K final state, thus allowing the experiment to study the elusive P-1(1) charmo nium slate in this decay channel too.
