Abstract
The time resolution for charged particle detection is reported for a typical scintillating fiber detector instrumented with Rockwell HISTE-IV Visible Light Photon Counters (VLPC). The resolution measurements are shown to agree with a simple Monte-Carlo model, and the model is used to make recommendations for improved performance. In addition, the gain linearity of a sample of VLPC devices was measured. The gain is shown to be linear for incident light intensities which produce up to approximately 600 photoelectrons per event.
