Development of new scintillating fiber detectors for high energy physics applications
We have been developing new scintillating fiber detectors for colliding beam and fixed target applications. In this paper, we present initial results from a development study of high refractive index, liquid scintillator, and the incorporation of these liquids into glass capillaries. Advantages of liquid in-capillary fiber detectors include: high efficiency and fast decay; the potential for high-resolution tracking as light emission is expected to be local to the deposited ionization in liquids containing single solutes; the potential for good radiation resistance and replaceability. 13 refs., 2 figs., 3 tabs.
