Abstract

During the operation of the Multiplicity Detector in the NA50 experiment the single sided AC-coupled p-on-n silicon strip detectors were exposed to charged particle fluences resulting in an equivalent 1 MeV neutron fluence up to 1014 eq.n/cm2 and a total ionising dose up to 20 Mrad, with a very non-uniform radiation spatial distribution. In this paper detailed analysis of radiation effects observed on the detectors during the 1996 lead ion run as well as results of measurements performed after the run are presented.
