Abstract:
A simple delay-line readout method has been tested with a position-sensitive photomultiplier. Position accuracies of the reconstruction by means of a time-to-amplitude convertor are quite comparable to those obtained by a conventional centroid method using a number of analog-to-digital convertors.
In this way, a simple and economic solution can be conceived for the readout of not only position-sensitive photomultipliers, but also arrays of different kinds of position detectors.
