摘要：

The scintillating fiber tracker for the measurement of the polar coordinate 0 for experiment E835 at Fermilab has. been upgraded, by adding two extra layers (240 fibers each), at R approximate to 9 cm from the beam axis. Photons from the fibers are detected by Visible Light Photon Counters (VLPCs). The high granularity, flexibility and fast response of the scintillating fibers, combined with the high quantum efficiency of the VLPCs, allow high rate capability, high efficiency, good tracking and time resolution. Signals from the outer two layers are used to provide B information to the first-level trigger. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
