Abstract
In this paper we present some results on the radiation tolerance of the CMS forward pixel detector. They were obtained from a beam test at Fermilab of a pixel-detector module, which was previously irradiated up to a maximum dose of 45Â Mrad of protons at 200Â MeV. It is shown that CMS forward pixel detector can tolerate this radiation dose without any major deterioration of its performance.
