摘要：

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer is a large acceptance cosmic-ray detector (0.5 m(2) sr) designed to operate at an altitude of 400 km on the International Space Station. The AMS-02 silicon tracker contains 2264 silicon microstrip sensors (total active area 6.75 m(2)). The internal alignment parameters of the assembled tracker have been determined on the ground with cosmic-ray muons. The alignment procedure is described and results for the alignment precision and position resolution are reported. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
