DOIAbstract
A tracking detector composed of scintillator bars with a triangular cross-section read out by silicon photomultipliers in analog mode was developed. The tracker was designed to instrument a low density spectrometer for neutrino experiments. The performance of the system has been studied by exposing it to charged particle beams at the CERN-PS. The tests have shown that the position resolution in reconstructing charged particles’ tracks is within 2.2 mm over the momentum range 0.5–10 GeV/c
