摘要
We present characteristics of a charged particle detector which combines optical fibers with a multianode photomultiplier. Our first prototype allows detection of 32P emitters on a 26×26 cm2 surface with 1.5 mm and 5 mm resolutions, respectively for X and Y directions, and a 0.3% efficiency. Improvements, presently under study, in both fiber qualities and photocathode efficiency should increase the device efficiency to 40% and its resolution up to the optical fiber diameter (500 μm for the time being). Such characteristic woul allow SOFI to replace autoradiographic films in biology and make it a convenient position sensitive detector in nuclear and particle physics.
