Abstract :
We have built a working system of silicon microstrip detectors that achieves a single plane resolution better than 19 microns, a track efficiency close to 100% for normal incidence, and a noise rate of less than 10-3. This detector system meets the requirements for a "microvertex" detector in a high rate, fixed target environment.
