Abstract
An improved target for lifetime measurements of short living particles has been implemented and tested along with the data processing electronics. The target is intended for measurements of lifetimes in the 10-13s region. In order to reduce the granularity and to make the measurement of such a short lifetime feasible, special techniques have been adopted to decrease the capacitance of the detectors and to improve the performance of signal processing electronics.
