Abstract :
A fiber-optic plate imaging system has been developed for active target and tracking applications, in which the active element is Ce(3+) in a silicate glass. Particle tracks and interactions have been recorded with a hit density of ¿ 4/mm for minimum ionizing particles and with a spatial resolution ¿ ~ 28¿ m.
