Scientific paper

The STAR Experiment's Time Projection Chamber (TPC) was designed to efficiently reconstruct charged particle tracks in the high multiplicity environment of the original RHIC specifications with the spatial precision to topologically identify weak decays of strange hadrons. The evolving physics program of the experiment has driven the calibration requirements to exceed those design goals to handle higher luminosities and accurately reconstruct track positions with even finer precision for optimal cooperation with silicon detectors. We discuss the challenges involved in the calibration of the TPC and the efforts which have successfully realized these goals.
