Development of New Scintillating Materials for the SSC
Abstract Development of organic scintillators for the SSC is concentrated in the two areas of scintillating optical fibers and resistance to radiation damage. While good progress has been made in adapting small-scale fiber making methods to the conventional plastic scintillator technology, much work remains in optimizing light output and transmission in small fibers and in mass production techniques. New solvent and fluor systems are being investigated for liquid fiber optics, and novel polymers are being tried for greater rad-hardness. The greatest challenge is the radiation damage issue. Systematic research is building a base for postulating damage mechanisms and how scintillators should be utilized in high intensity radiation fields.
