The sPHENIX Micromegas Outer Tracker
Abstract
The sPHENIX Time Projection Chamber Outer Tracker (TPOT) is a Micromegas based detector. It is a part of the sPHENIX experiment that aims to facilitate the calibration of the Time Projection Chamber, in particular the correction of the time-averaged and beam-induced distortions of the electron drift. Here, this paper describes the detector mission, setup, construction, installation, commissioning and performance during the first year of sPHENIX data taking.
