Tracking of charged particles using an FE-I4B pixel telescope and moving emulsion films — Markus Cristinziani, Fabian Hügging, Jens Janssen, Vadim Kostyukhin, •Nikolaus Owtscharenko, and David-Leon Pohl — Physikalisches Institut der Universität Bonn

The SHiP collaboration plans a general purpose fixed-target experiment to search for hidden particles at a new beam-dump facility at the CERN SPS. To estimate the total charm cross-section in the final experiment, which includes hadronic cascade production, a dedicated measurement will be performed in 2018. Protons from the SPS interact with a multilayer target, that is interleaved with tracking emulsion films. Silicon pixel detectors behind the target will complement the high spatial resolution of emulsions with a high timing resolution.

In order to develop this tracking system, a telescope with five planes of ATLAS IBL modules has been operated in the SPS beam together with two emulsion films moving perpendicularly to the beam. This talk reports on the combined operation and first results of the 2017 test beam.
