Description

The Lycoris high precision large area silicon telescope was designed and commissioned for the DESY
II Test Beam Facility as part of the AIDA2020 project.
The telescope was designed to be complementary to the existing EUDET-type telescopes, providing a
large active area with only a minimal support structure while still providing a single point resolution
better than 10 μm. As such, the telescope consists of six 9.35 × 9.35 cm2 hybrid-less silicon micro-strip
sensors with a strip pitch of 25 μm. The choice of sensor allows a full arm of the Lycoris telescope to
fit within a space with width of 3.5 cm allowing the testing of, for example, large DUTs together with
a telescope within the PCMAG superconducting solenoid. The full system was completed in 2019
and tested in multiple test beam campaigns. First results of the telescope performance, including the
achievable signal over noise ratio, plane hit efficiency, as well as the achievable single point resolution
of the system will be presented.
