An effective method to read out large scintillator areas with precise timing

Instrumentation and Detectors 2016-09-08 v1

Abstract

Using scintillator tile technology several square meters of plastic scintillator are read out by only two photomultiplier with a time precision of about 1.5 nsec. Two examples are discussed to build a detector based on this technology to search for cosmic muons and neutrinos.
