Motivation for the measurements

Chip had taken data during Test Beam Pixel are not calibrated → position of the Landau distribution varied from pixel to pixel

Motivation for the measurements

Chip had taken data during Test Beam Pixel are not calibrated → position of the Landau distribution varied from pixel to pixel Each pixel needs to be calibrated individually → a lot of statistic is needed

Calibration measurements

Already finished most of the measurements Statistics for different sources:

◮ Am 241 gamma: all: 70052360 entries; single pixel: 43037750 entries ◮ Fe 55: all: 45305420 entries; single pixel: 44670740 entries ◮ Cd 109: all: 30787630 entries; single pixel: 20522860 entries

next step fit peak for every pixel

◮ Stephane wrote a program which finds the peak automatically and

makes the fit

TOT Spectrum of a single pixel

noise peak always in the lowest entries to small to get masked → physical events still measurable

Summary and Outlook

Calibration measurements are mostly finished Continue the analysis, next steps will be

◮ use Stephane’s program to fit peak of each single pixel for the different

sources

◮ Cross check the results with Am 241 α and Sr 90 source ◮ recalibrate the test beam data Julia Rietenbach () Lab calibration measurements with radioactive sources
