Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have been developed new charged particle detectors with high position resolution, wide effective area and low costs. For examples; detectors made of plate inorganic scintilators, Wave Length Shifting Fibers and Pixelated Photon Detectors with a position resorution of 0.05mm, effective area of 2m times 2m and cost of 10 MYen : detectors made of plasctic scintillators, Crear Fibers, WLSF and PMT with a position resolution of 1mm, effective area of 100m2 and cost of 4sets of 200 MYen.
