Intro and Physics
The Forward Silicon Vertex Detector (FVTX) for PHENIX will allow robust identification of
heavy-quark (charm and beauty) production in the forward
and backward rapidity regions in A+A, p(d)+A, and polarized p+p collisions. It provides new coverage
in the small-x region where gluon saturation is thought to be important and greatly extends the range
over which PHENIX can examine the gluon structure functions and their polarization.

-
FVTX DOE proposal, and the
NCC proposal, both submitted 3 March 2006.
- The current plan is to complete the proposal by mid February,
for BNL to get it to DOE before the March DOE retreat,
and then a BNL review in mid March will provide further input to DOE.
- DOE proposal final draft in
MSWord,
