Abstract :
Plastic scintillator as a nuclear detection material has been widely used in the field of particle detection as a result of ease of processing into various shapes and low price. In this paper, a new particle detector used in microbeam based on plastic scintillating fiber was introduced. The processing procedure of plastic scintillating fiber and the detection results of particle detectors were discussed in detail. The results show that this particle detector can improve the detection efficiency.
