Abstract :
A 45 × 45 mm rectangular silicon drift detector (SDD) was irradiated using a 60Co γ-source and its performance was studied. The total integrated dosage was 9 krad which is equivalent to the ionizing radiation dosage that the STAR SVT inner barrel detectors are expected to receive during 10 years of running at the soon to be built RHIC collider. The detectorʹs performance after a high temperature annealing was also studied. The detector was found to be sufficiently radiation hard for RHIC applications.
