Abstract
We report on the development of an automated scanning system for nuclear emulsions aiming at very precise spatial and angular measurements. An accuracy of 0.06 μ m in position was achieved with the emulsion films used for the measurement. An accuracy of 0.4 mrad was achieved for tracks penetrating orthogonally the emulsion films while an accuracy of 1 mrad was obtained for tracks inclined by about 300 mrad with respect to the perpendicular direction. This result shows unprecedented position and angular resolutions achieved by automated measurements.
