Abstract

Noise characteristics and MIP registration efficiency of the Scintillation Tile with MRS APD Light Readout (START) were measured with cosmic particles. Encouraging results open a broad range of possibilities for using START in large-scale applications, requiring low-noise, efficient and stable trigger for cosmic muons.
