Abstract:

A high resolution ( <3 um) beam telescope based on monolithic active pixel sensors was developed within the EUDET project. EUDET is a coordinated detector R&D program for a future international linear collider providing test beam infrastructure to detector R&D groups. The telescope consists of six sensor planes with a pixel pitch of 18.4 um and can be operated inside a solenoidal magnetic field of up to 1.2 T.  Generic tools for cooling, positioning, readout infrastructure and data analysis are available for the users.

Since summer 2007 the pixel telescope has been employed by many detector groups from the LC,  LHC or FT communities. The telescope was also used as reference system for tests at the electron test beam facility at DESY and also at the high energy hadron SPS test beam facility at CERN. In fall 2009 the final sensor Mimosa26 with fully digital readout was introduced.  In this presentation the very modular concept of the telescope will be shown and the performance of the telescope in the different tests will be summarized.
