Description

Measurements of the behaviour of various high-resolution silicon strip detectors with capacitive charge division have been made in a high-energy particle beam. The results are compared with an electrostatic model which calculates the charges deposited on the strips after the passage of a minimum ionizing particle. Good agreement is found and the model is used to propose a method of improving the charge-division properties of such detectors. (orig.)
