Description

In the context of the Mu3e experiment, High Voltage Monolithic Active Pixel Sensors (HV-MAPS) are used as main tracking detector providing highly efficient tracking with good momentum, vertex and timing resolution. The Mupix HV-MAPS prototypes were arranged in a telescope setup with four layers as an integration test and for efficiency measurements. During test beam campains at the Paul-Scherrer Institute the telescope was placed in a 250 MeV/c pion beam. A simple straight track model was used for tracking particles through the layers. One of the chips served as device under test with varying settings and its efficiency was determined by using the other three layers for tracking. This talk focuses on the alignment and efficiency analysis of test beam data from July and October 2014.
