Abstract

Development of a position-sensitive large-area microchannel plate (MCP) detector based detection system is reported. Two MCPs with 120 mm active diameter, mounted in chevron configuration, with delay-line anode are read out by a digital data-acquisition system consists of fast-timing amplifier unit and CAEN v1751 waveform digitizer. Details of the digital pulse processing, programmed triggering and calibration setup are described. The obtained position resolution was studied using α-particles, the best resolutions on X and Y axes are 460 ± 1μm and 579 ± 1μm in FWHM, respectively.
