Description
The e+e- linear collider physics programme sets highly demanding requirements on the accurate determination of charged particle trajectories close to their production point. A new generation of Vertex Trackers, based on different technologies of high resolution silicon sensors, is being developed to provide the needed performances. These developments are based on the experience with the LEP/SLC vertex detectors and on the results of the R&D programs for the LHC trackers and also define a further program of R&D specific to the linear collider applications. In this paper the present status of the conceptual tracker design, silicon detector R&D and physics studies is discussed.
