Abstract
The tracking system for the PAMELA spectrometer is actually under construction using double-sided double metal AC coupled microstrip,silicon sensors. To study the performances of the silicon detectors and of the readout electronics several tests have been performed, using minimum ionizing particles. The characteristics of the detectors are described and the main results obtained from the July '97 test-beam are presented, with particular reference to the spatial resolution.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
