Abstract：
A new forward vertex detector is under construction for the PHENIX experiment and will be installed in 2011. The device consists of two sets of four disks of silicon mini-strips and matches the acceptance of the existing muon detectors, and will provide precise vertex measurement for charged tracks. The forward vertex detector is designed to greatly enhance the heavy-flavor physics capabilities on PHENIX. The structure of the proposed device and its performance from Monte Carlo studies are presented.
