The goal of the FOOT (FragmentatiOn Of Target) experiment is to measure the fragmentation cross section of protons into H, C, O targets at beam energies of interest for hadrontherapy (50–250 MeV for protons and 50–400 MeV/u for Carbon ions) (Tommasino et al., 2015 1; FOOT CDR Conceptual Design, 0000 2). Given the short range of the fragments, an inverse kinematic approach has been chosen, hence requiring precise tracking capabilities for charged ions. One of the foreseen experiment subsystems will be the MSD (Microstrip Silicon Detector), composed of three x–y measuring planes. In this work we evaluate the suitability of standard double-sided microstrip detectors, coupled to an high dynamic range readout chip, to be used for this task. The results about cluster signal, signal/noise, and dynamic range of readout chip are encouraging, and confirm the suitability of this class of sensors to be used in the FOOT experiment.
