Commissioning of the KLOE-2 Inner Tracker: The first cylindrical GEM detector

2015

The KLOE-2 Inner Tracker, the first fully-cylindrical GEM detector ever built, is being commissioned at the Frascati Laboratory of INFN. KLOE-2 is the first experiment exploiting GEM technology with cylindrical geometry. Tracking performance of this novel detector are being studied using both cosmic-ray muon and Bhabha scattering events. Alignment and calibration procedures to reach design spatial resolutions are ongoing and will be reported.
