8. ALICE 3 vertex detector - R&D highlights : Mechanics Iris mechanics and requirements It is built on the idea of an assembly of 4 petals, which can simultaneously retract acting like in an iris optics diaphragm Crucial parameters & characterizing Iris Aperture: Certain minimum diameters is required for beam clearance Vacuum: Stability of vacuum may get affected due to beam energetic particles hitting the surface release all or part of their energies Impedance: Conductivity imperfections (smoothness) of beam pipe produces electromagnetic fields along beam which acts back on beam particles EMF shielding: Inner walls of petals need to control EMF produced by beam particles to minimize electrical coupling between detector material and beam Transparency: Detection of particles produced in collisions requires a clean pass from the vacuum, with minimum interaction with beam pipe 8
