Abstract
High-resolution beam telescopes for charged particle tracking are one of the most
important and equally demanding infrastructure items at test beam facilities. The main purpose of
beam telescopes is to provide precise reference track information of beam particles to measure the
performance of a device under test (DUT). In this report the development of the ADENIUM beam
telescope (ALPIDE sensor based DESY Next test beam
Instrument) as a demonstrator and prototype for a next-generation beam
telescope is presented. The ADENIUM beam telescope features up to six pixelated reference planes
framed by plastic scintillators for triggering. ADENIUM is capable of replacing the currently
used EUDET-type beam telescopes without impacting existing DUT implementations due to the
integration of the telescope DAQ into EUDAQ2.
In this report the concept and design of the ADENIUM telescope as well as its performance are
discussed. The telescope's pointing resolution is determined in different configurations. For an
optimal setup at a momentum of 5.6 GeV with an ALPIDE as DUT, a resolution better than
