1. ~90% of π and ~50% of K decay to μ2. one needs to determined precisely (~1º) kink angle
S/B ratio is too bad. One needs to have morethen 1 detector layer between absorbers
One needs to have more compact system as possible
One needs to optimize systemfor different options (LMVM & charm)
Additional pipe shieldingis needed

Summary• Simulation tools have been developed to design and optimize
CBM muon detection system.
• Present muon detector design is tested for different collision systems, and is able to measure muons already at SIS100.
• Simulations with additional electron noise show the possibility to separate reconstructed signal and background even when increasing 3 times the number of secondary electrons, which corresponds to increasing of hit density more than 2 times.
22
Next steps• Implementation of:
• realistic detector discription • different type of the detectors• inefficiency of the detectors
• muon trigger• additional secondary electrons with correlated hits in
detectors
• Muon system optimizations:• number of sensitive layers• thickness of absorbers• optimization tacking into account costs
• Test of possible solutions of muon system using LMVM and charmonium simulations
23
• Implementation of flexible Hit Producer
• possibility to change the structure of detector layer
• possibility to change thesize of detectors only inregion of interest
• size of detectors in X and Y directions are independent
