F. Albiol et al., BEAM TEST OF THE ATLAS SILICON DETECTOR MODULES, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 409(1-3), 1998, pp. 236-239
Results are reported from a beam test of prototype silicon microstrip
detectors and front-end electronics developed for use in the LHC detec
tor ATLAS. The detector assemblies (''modules'') were 12 cm long and w
ere read out with binary electronics. Both irradiated and unirradiated
modules were measured in a 1.56 T magnetic held for efficiency, noise
occupancy, and position resolution as a function of bias voltage, bin
ary hit threshold, and detector rotation angle with respect to the bea
m direction. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
