Jets at high $Q^2$ at HERA and test beam measurements with the EUDET pixel telescope

TLDR: In this article, the authors performed test-beam measurements with the EUDET pixel telescope and compared the single-point resolution and the detection efficiency with the expectation and found that the results were consistent with the expected.

Abstract: Test-beam measurements were performed with the EUDET pixel telescope. During the work for this thesis1, the online-monitoring software was improved, the Mimosa 26 sensors were integrated into the offline analysis software and the data taken with these sensors were analysed. The first data were taken with the demonstrator telescope together with three Mimosa 26 sensors that were operated as devices-under-test. The second data sample was taken with a telescope that consisted of six Mimosa 26 sensors, of which five could be used. The single-point resolution and the detection efficiency were determined and found to be consistent with the expectation. ∗University of Hamburg, DESY This report was published as part of a PhD thesis (DESY-THESIS-2010-038).
