Abstract :
The charge collected from p-type silicon strip sensors irradiated to SuperLHC fluences has been determined in a beta source using fast front-end electronics. The bias voltage dependence of the collected charge and the efficiency have been measured before and after accelerated annealing. Predictions of the performance at the LHC are derived.
