“…When ultrarelativistic particles γ > 1000 intersect a boundary of two substances with different constants, X ray radi ation photons are emitted. In addition, the transition radiation detectors (TRDs) [115][116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123] are efficiently used not only for identification of particles, such as electrons and positrons, but also as tracking detectors, since the typical TRD includes the gas wire chamber.…”

“…In the experiments at the LHC, the TRDs are used at the ATLAS [115] and ALICE [116][117][118][119][120][121][122][123][124][125][126][127] setups. It is assumed that the quark-gluon plasma can appear at the LHC at Pb-Pb collisions in the center of masses with 5.4 TeV energy.…”

“…The detector monitoring system, which is based on the specialized processor, is described in [118]. The new version of the TRD prototype with the changed configuration is described in [120]. The pro totype consists of two separate MWPCs, which are connected to the common cathode.…”

Special features and parameters of detectors, front end electronics, and trigger electronics of the ALICE setup, which is intended for investigations of ultrarelativistic nucleon-nucleon collisions at the LHC and for studies of heavy ion collisions, starting from protons to several types of ions, which have 5.5 TeV/nucleon energy in the center of mass, are described. One of the first collisions of lead ions was recorded by the ALICE detector

The compressed baryonic matter (CBM) experiment at the future FAIR facility near Darmstadt, Germany, will investigate baryonic matter at highest net-baryon densities but moderate temperatures by colliding nuclei at beam energies from 10 to 45 A GeV. Among the key observables are low-mass vector mesons and charmonium decaying into lepton pairs as they leave the hot and dense fireball without further interactions, thus providing undisturbed information from this early dense phase of the collision. In this paper, investigations for both decay channels, di-electrons and di-muons are presented in terms of detector concepts, simulations and feasibility studies.
