Abstract

A scintillating fiber imager (SFI) has been developed for restriction landmark genomic scanning (RLGS) technology. Test measurements have been carried out with genomic linkage map labelled with ³²P (β-ray emitter) and ⁵⁸Ni beam at 90 MeV/nucleon as well. The system offers real time acquisition and an easy quantification of RLGS data compared to film-based autoradiography, and it is proved to be a powerful position sensitive detector for measurements in nuclear physics
