Description

A vertex-detector concept based on the hybrid planar pixel-detector technology is currently under development for the proposed multi-TeV linear e+e- Compact Linear Collider (CLIC). Prototype assemblies with thin planar pixel sensors (50-300 um) bump bonded to Timepix readout ASICs have been characterised at DESY with a 5.5 GeV electron beam and using the EUDET beam telescope and calibrated with sources and X-ray fluorescence measurements. The test-beam setup is simulated using a GEANT4-based simulation framework (ALLPix) which is tuned using TCAD simulation tools to model the silicon devices. In this talk we present the current status of test-beam data analysis and comparison with Geant4 simulations.
