Abstract
A position-sensitive proportional counter with a carbon fiber anode, a goniometer and its associated electronics have been constructed to measure particle induced X-rays. The counter is easy to construct and its volume is about one order of magnitude smaller than a commercially available delay-line PSPC. This counter has good position linearity and uniform sensitivity distribution. Comparison is made between the new type of PSPC and an older one previously reported. It is shown that an enlargement of the X-ray window of the PSPC is effective for improving the detection efficiency.
