Abstract

The possible applications of high-resolution vertex detectors at B-meson factories based on e+ e− collisions are discussed with special emphasis on the different possible kinematics regions (γ[4S] resonance, boosted γ[4S] resonance and e+ e− continuum at\( \sqrt s \)∼(12÷20) GeV). The observability of B0-\(\overline B ^0 \) mixing as a function of the B-meson decay length is used to define the minimal requirements on the precision of a vertex detector system. Implications on the design of the detector as well as of the collider are investigated and the technological feasibility of the required spatial resolution is discussed.
