AbstractIn this work the setup and commissioning of a drift tube based 3D muontracking detector are described and its use for the solar neutrino experimentBorexino is presented. After a brief introduction to neutrino physics, the generallayout of the detector is presented. It is followed by the description of the reconstructionand calibration algorithms. The performance of the muon trackeris presented and results from the commissioning in Hamburg are shown. Thedetector is currently operated in the LNGS underground laboratory in Italy atthe Borexino experiment. After an introduction to Borexino, the modificationsof the muon tracker for its setup at LNGS are described. The setup is usedas a reference system to determine the resolution of the Borexino muon trackingwhich is essential for the tagging of cosmogenic induced 11 C background.Finally, first results are presented.ZusammenfassungDiese Arbeit beschreibt den Aufbau und die Inbetriebnahme eines driftröhrenbasierten3D Myonenspurdetektors sowie seinen Einsatz beim solarenNeutrino Experiment Borexino. Nach einer kurzen Einführung in die Neutrinophysikwird der Aufbau des Detektors präsentiert. Anschließend werdendie Rekonstruktions- und Kalibrationsalgorithmen vorgestellt. Die wesentlichenEigenschaften des Myonendetektors, sowie Ergebnisse der Inbetriebnahme inHamburg werden gezeigt. Der Detektor wird zur Zeit am LNGS Untergrundlaborin Italien beim Borexino Experiment eingesetzt. Nach einer kurzen Einführungin das Borexino Experiment werden die Änderungen am Detektor fürden Einsatz am LNGS gezeigt. Der Aufbau wird als Referenzsystem zur Bestimmungder Auflösung der Borexino Myonenspurrekonstruktion verwendet,die zur Identifizierung des kosmogen induzierten 11 C Untergrundes essentiellist. Abschließend werden erste Ergebnisse präsentiert.iii
