Beam Test of BTeV Pixel Detectors

High Energy Physics - Experiment 2010-01-11 v1

Abstract

The silicon pixel vertex detector is one of the key elements of the BTeV spectrometer. Detector prototypes were tested in a beam at Fermilab. We report here on the measured spatial resolution as a function of the incident angles for different sensor-readout electronics combinations. We compare the results with predictions from our Monte Carlo simulation.
