Understanding the properties of strong interaction matter under extreme conditions of temperature and baryon density is a central objective of modern nuclear physics. While the phase structure of QCD at vanishing baryo-chemical potential is constrained by lattice QCD calculations and ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collision experiments at CERN and RHIC, its behaviour at higher net-baryon densities serves as an increasingly active area of experimental and theoretical study.

This beam time application submitted in June 2022 is a continuation request by the CBM Collaboration to the General Program Advisory Committee (G-PAC) of GSI/FAIR, following the proposals which were granted in 2017 [4] and 2020 [5] within the FAIR phase-0 program of GSI / FAIR. The primary aim of mCBM@SIS18 (short “mCBM”) is to commission and optimize the complex interplay of the different detector systems with the triggerless-streaming data acquisition and the fast online event reconstruction and selection under realistic experiment conditions up to the top CBM interaction rate of 10 MHz.

This beam time application submitted in June 2020 is a continuation request by the CBM Collaboration, following the proposal on the CBM full-system test-setup at the SIS18 facility under the name mCBM@SIS18 (short “mCBM”), which was fully granted in September 2017. The primary aim of the mCBM setup is to commission and optimize the complex interplay of the different detector systems with the triggerless-streaming data acquisition and the fast online event reconstruction and selection.
