Abstract
We have been investigating the performance of scintillating pad detectors, individual small tiles of scintillator that are read out with wavelength-shifting fibers and visible light photon counters, for application in high luminosity colliding beam experiments such as the DØ Upgrade. Such structures could provide “pixel” type readout over large fiducial volumes for tracking, preshower detection and triggering
