4. 2004/02/16BPM for Spot Scanning System, Yoshimasa YUASA 4 Idea for our Monitor Wire… –Resolution is good for spatial and charge. –Speed is limited by a decay time It is not so fast as a few msec. –Electronics is complicated. Very expensive; a few ten million yen Scintillation… my favorite one –Wire to Fiber Fiber size is 0.2 - 2 mm square and circle. Decay time is so fast as a few nsec. –Photomultiplire tube to Image sensor Electronics is simple. It become inexpensive. A scanning speed of the sensor is a order of MHz. Fast DAQ taking is possible.
