Abstract
| The ALICE detector at LHC consists, in its inner part, i.e. the internal-tracking-system (ITS), of six concentrical barrels of silicon detectors. The outmost two layers are made of double-sided strip detectors. In the framework of an R&D;, their characteristics and performances have been studied off- and in-beam at the PS and the SPS (CERN). Sensors, manufactured by two different companies, have been tested and their performances analysed. The results are presented and discussed. |
