Study of the P̄ANDA pixel detector performances in a beam test with pions of 10 GeV/c momentum

A beam test of different prototypes of single chip hybrid pixel assembly, aimed for the ANDA Micro-Vertex-Detector, was performed at the T9 facility of CERN-PS in August 2012. Their data acquisition was operated with continuous readout as foreseen in the experiment. In this paper the experimental set-up of the test and the data analysis are described and then the results are discussed.
