Photon Counting and Transmission in Scintillating Optical Fibers

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Scintillating optical fibers produce photons when traversed by charged particles. Through silicon-hybrid photomultiplier technology, photon transmission and absorption have been measured in scintillating fibers for space-based experiments. Improvement of transmission with decreasing temperature is observed.
