Abstract :
A scintillating fibre detector for relativistic heavy ions with an active area of 50 × 50 cm2 has been developed and was tested with various ion beams (1 ≤ Z ≤ 92). At count rates of up to 105 particles/s, the position resolution was found to be determined by the fibre width of 1 mm; depending on the nuclear charge of the beam, efficiencies between 89% and 100% and time resolutions between 800 and 200 ps (FWHM) were obtained.
