Abstract
The hit response of silicon vertex and tracking detectors to muon collider beam background and results of a study of hit reducing techniques are presented. The background caused by decays of the 750 GeV/c μ+ and μ− beams was simulated using the MARS15 program, which included the infrastructure of the beam line elements near the detector and the 10o nozzles that shield the detector from this background. The ILCRoot framework, along with the Geant4 program, was used to simulate the hit response of the silicon vertex and tracker detectors to the muon decay background remaining after the shielding nozzles. The background hit reducing techniques include timing, energy deposition, and hit location correlation in the double layer geometry.
