Abstract :
We describe the design, construction and use of a parallel readout Multiwire Linear Detector, capable of recording X-ray patterns at high counting rates. The data acquisition system, built in conjunction with the detector, allows time-resolved measurements with millisecond resolution. The detector and electronics has been tested at the SRS, Daresbury by recording both static and time-resolved equatorial patterns from muscle.
