Description
I will present KarTel, a telescope build in Ljubljana and based on Mimosa 26 sensors.
As an illustration of KarTel operation - a novel method will be presented that can be used to investigate the properties of silicon and CVD diamond detectors for High Energy Physics experiments. The method is similar to the already well established E-TCT technique using laser beam. In the proposed method the beam of high energy hadrons (MIPs) is used instead of laser beam. MIPs incident on the detector in the direction parallel to the readout electrode plane and perpendicular to the edge of the detector. Such experiment could prove very useful to study CVD diamond detectors which are almost inaccessible for the E-TCT measurements with laser due to large band-gap as well as to verify and complement the E-TCT measurements of silicon.
The method proposed is being tested at CERN in a beam of 120GeV hadrons using a KarTel telescope based on Mimosa 26 sensors with track resolution at the DUT of few μm. MIPs passing trough 6 planes of the reference telescope with the DUT detector in the middle are triggered by 2 scintillators. The preliminary results of the measurements will be presented.
