MVD KEY PARAMETERS

dimensions Envelope: 752mm in z, 238mm in r for azimuthal angles between xx and xx, and r=290 elsewhere
The barrel is 64 cm long, holding 12 strip detectors.
each detector has 256 strips, 200 um pitch.
acceptance full coverage in azimuthal angle.
pseudorapidity coverage: <=2.5 for the barrel, between 1.8 and 2.65 for the pads.
channels inner barrel: 12 c-modules x 6 in phi x 256 strips/detector= xxx
outer barrel: ( 4x6 + 8x2 ) x 256 = xxx
pads: 8 detectors in phi x 12 columns x 20 in r = xxx
total: 38K channels
weight a few pounds
thickness X0 = 0.61% for tracks traversing 1 silicon detector, and 0.96% for 2 silicon layers.
resolution 2mm in z at the trigger level, ~0.2mm offline
