COmpact detectoR for the Electron ion collider (CORE)
General principles:
- A detector built within and around a compact solenoid can enable the full EIC physics program
- Compact size reduces cost and enables investments in key technologies for critical subsystems
- Compact longitudinal size allows option of moving Final Focus Quadrupoles closer to the Interaction Point (IP)
- Enables higher luminosity and higher far-forward angular acceptance
- Compact size reduces cost and enables investments in key technologies for critical subsystems
- An all-Si digital tracker based on Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (MAPS) technology fulfills the tracking requirements
- High performance Particle ID is enabled by the past decade of EIC Generic Detector R&D
- DIRC with focussing optics for hadron PID in `Barrel' region
- Dual RICH (aerogel + heavy gas) for hadron PID in `ion-Endcap' region
- Hadronic Calorimetry adapted to EIC kinematics/multiplicity
- High granularity total absorption HCal in forward (ion) direction
- Modest granularity (BELLE-II style) muon and K-Long ID in remainder of solenoid flux return
