The results of the BTeV silicon pixel detector beam test carried out at Fermilab in 1999-2000 are reported. The pixel detector spatial resolution has been studied as a function of track inclination, sensor bias, and readout threshold.

Purpose: Current photon-counting computed tomography detectors are limited to a pixel size of around 0.3 mm-0.5 mm due to excessive charge sharing degrading the dose efficiency and energy resolution as the pixels become smaller. In this…
