Upgrade ProjectUpgrade Project
• Physics motivation– K+Y coincidence measurement
• Advantage– No Fermi motion correction– Reaction Plane will be defined
• Direct comparison with Model• Lambda polarization
• Detector upgrade– Replacing inner detector
• Replace straw drift chamber by a 3D tracker– increase the acceptance
• Two-side-read-out hodoscope– increase dE/dx and TOF resolution– better particle separation

FrameFrame
• Concept– Less material– but to be strong
• ~216 kg total wire tension
• CFRP pillar– 20Lx40Wx0.5TH mm3 – 1.0TH = 0.004 X0
• target chamber: 0.009 X0IH: 0.012 X0
• End-cap 160 mm426 mm height of pillar
– 390 mm wire height
• This design has the most large safety factor in plans
Safety factor min: 6.2

SummarySummary
• The detector upgrade project is on going– Goal: K+Y coincidence measurement– Increasing acceptance of tracking– Increasing start time resolution of TOF
• better /K/p separation toward K++Y measurement
• New inner detectors– Expecting ~8 times K0
S+ events
• Schedule– Test experiment before summer– Beam time will be requested
