Performance of silicon-strip-detectors in direct contact with absorbers for the secondary target at PANDA

  • 1. Institut fuer Kernphysik, Johannes Gutenberg-Universitaet, Mainz (Germany)

Description

In order to produce and detect double Λ-hypernuclei at the PANDA-detector at GSI, a small secondary sandwich target is foreseen. This will be composed of stacked silicon-strip-detectors and layers of absorber material, 9Be, 10,11B or 12,13C. Ξ--baryons escaping the primary 12C-target are decelerated and the weak decay products will be identified in the secondary target. After assembling a test station, functionality-tests of silicon-strip-detectors in direct contact with absorber layers have been performed. The results of these test measurements are described, and the consequences for the operation of the secondary target are discussed.
