Abstract A reliable and simple-to-use algorithm was developed for the energy-calibration of double-sided silicon strip detectors (DSSSDs). It works by enforcing mutual consistency of p-side and n-side information for every detected event. The procedure does not rely on a dedicated data set for calibration and is robust enough to work fully automated without human supervision. The method was developed and applied to data from a DSSSD of the Lund-York-Cologne CAlorimeter (LYCCA) for the HISPEC experiment at FAIR. It has been tested on ions in the A â 90 mass range at energies of E kin â 300 MeV / u .
