Description
A beam telescope consisting of four double sided, DC coupled microstrip detectors with VLSI readout electronics has been built and tested in a 70 GeV μ- beam at CERN. A signal-to-noise ratio of 53:1 and a spatial resolution of 2.7μm (junction side) and 4.8μm (ohmic side) have been observed on the best detectors. A telescope performance for a particle track of σxy 2-3μm and σslope = 2-3μrad on the front face of a test object was achieved. (orig.)
