A scintillating-microfibre, tracking detector has been used at the CERN Omega spectrometer to record the interactions of 340 GeV/c pi- particles incident on a fixed target. The detector - based on coherent bundles of approximately 36-mu-m diameter, PMP-doped plastic fibres - was oriented so as to give views of interactions in the plane perpendicular to the incoming pions. Additional event information was provided by a series of 20 and 50-mu-m pitch silicon-microstrip detectors, placed near to the fibres, and by the spectrometer. An account is given of the contribution of the scintillating-fibre device in obtaining full event reconstruction.

Abstract
A scintillating-microfibre, tracking detector has been used at the CERN Omega spectrometer to record the interactions of 340 GeV/c pi- particles incident on a fixed target. The detector - based on coherent bundles of approximately 36-mu-m diameter, PMP-doped plastic fibres - was oriented so as to give views of interactions in the plane perpendicular to the incoming pions. Additional event information was provided by a series of 20 and 50-mu-m pitch silicon-microstrip detectors, placed near to the fibres, and by the spectrometer. An account is given of the contribution of the scintillating-fibre device in obtaining full event reconstruction.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
