Abstract

We report the main results of the BTeV silicon pixel detector beam test carried out at Fermilab during the fixed target run 1999-2000. The tests were performed using a 227 GeV/c pion beam incident on a 6 plane silicon microstrip telescope. Several single-chip silicon pixel planes were placed in the middle of the apparatus. The pixel detector spatial resolution has been studied as a function of track inclination and the number of ADC bits. The effect of an applied external magnetic field was also studied.
