Abstract
Abstract Silicon vertex detectors will be crucial to the success of high rate bottom physics experiments at hadron colliders. A geometrical layout and detector segmentation scheme is presented that is optimized for the production and decay properties of b-particles. While existing p - i - n diode sensors are adequate, new VLSI readout electronics must be developed that are faster and more radiation tolerant than existing devices. Technology is available from the telecommunications industry for streaming the data off the vertex detector. This information can be manipulated with wafer-scale integration processors for use in triggering.
