Figure: The resolution as a function of crossing angles for $50\mu$m pitch detectors with signal-to-noise of 10:1. The reconstuction algorithm used is the simple R/(L+R) throughout the angular range.
Circles are with no diffusion, no Lorenz angle, and no Landau.
Squares are with diffusion, no Lorenz angle, and no Landau.
Triangles are with diffusion, Lorenz angle, and no Landau.
Inverted triangles are with diffusion, Lorenz angle, and Landau.

Figure: The resolution as a function of crossing angles for $50\mu$m pitch detectors with signal-to-noise of 13:1.
The circles are without an intermediary strip.
The squares are with an intermediary strip.
