摘要

At collider energies of 200A-GeV, tracking of charged particle pairs originating from neutrals is dominated by singly-strange K_s~o decays. Counting the number of secondary vertex pairs is a method of measuring the strangeness production. The VTX is a four-layer micro-strip gas time projection chamber being designed for use with the STAR instrument in an experiment using the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Simulated pixel data generated from CERN's Monte Carlo detector-modeling program Geant were put into tables using the TAS sorting structures available from the STAR Collaboration. The response of VTX was mapped for charged pion pairs emerging from each secondary vertex resulting from the decay of a neutral kaon. Grouping each set of two charged pions of opposite sign which originate from a vertex distinct from the collider vertex is the method being presented for measuring strangeness production. This method has three steps: (1) removing all charged particles originating directly from the collider vertex using established methods, (2) identifying which ≤ 4 residual pixel tracks in the 4 micro-strip TPC planes belong to which particular individual pion, and (3) grouping these secondary pions into the appropriate pairs. Research presented will concentrate on steps (2) and (3) in identifying each K_s~o in order to measure strangeness production. Backgrounds were generated as part of the simulation process, and to help in the elimination of backgrounds, rough-set analysis was used to fine tune algorithm parameters using exemplars which are available from simulation data in TAS Tables.
