摘要
A compact Cosmic Ray demonstrator for physics outreach programs is described. The detector consists of an array of 121 plastic scintillator blocks (each 11 x 11 x 100 mm(3)) read out by avalanche photo diodes. The data output comprises a large LED display and a standard USB interface for further data processing. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
