Characterisation of Medipix3 Silicon Detectors in a Charged-Particle Beam

arXiv:1509.02387 · doi:10.1088/1748-0221/11/01/P01011

Abstract

While designed primarily for X-ray imaging applications, the Medipix3 ASIC can also be used for charged-particle tracking. In this work, results from a beam test at the CERN SPS with irradiated and non-irradiated sensors are presented and shown to be in agreement with simulation, demonstrating the suitability of the Medipix3 ASIC as a tool for characterising pixel sensors.
