Radiation hardness study on molded scintillation tiles and wavelength shifting fibers

Large-area sandwich veto detector with WLS fibre readout for hadron spectroscopy at COMPASS

“…Light signals from scintillating material can be collected, converted and transported to photomultipliers by wavelength shifting fibres. This technique has been optimized by the Moscow-Protvino groups [3][4][5][6] with regard to good efficiency, fast timing and radiation hardness. It allows for compact large-area calorimeter designs.…”
