Abstract
We have studied a system based on scintillator counters with WLS fiber light collection and SiPM readout for the Belle II experiment. We have identified a few simple improvements in the strip production technology which allow significant increases in the light collection efficiency, thus increasing the efficiency and robustness of the entire detector. The new system should work efficiently at background rates and radiation doses ∼100 times larger than those observed for the Belle experiment. As demonstrated by many tests, the system has sufficient robustness to operate well in a strong magnetic field and high radiation and interaction environment with no significant degradation anticipated after many years of data taking. While this system was designed for a particular experiment, namely Belle II, our study can be applied to the construction of muon systems in many experiments.
