Bayesian Optimization of The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider Luminosity via s * Control
A state-of-the-art jet detector named sPHENIX was proposed, commissioned, and operated at the Rel ativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) from 2023 to 2025. This detector featured precision tracking and calorime try that enable high-statistics studies of the Quark Gluon Plasma through jet modification, upsilon suppres sion, and open heavy flavor production. The innermost component of the three sPHENIX tracking systems is the Monolithic-Active-Pixel-Sensor-based Vertex Detec tor (MVTX) (Fig. 1), which has an acceptance within | s | < 0.1m of the interaction point (IP).
