Outline:
Background of the study Research Design and Methodology Scintillator’s surface covering and
length variation WLS fiber’s length variation Results Summary Future plans
R&D for new calorimeters to achieve accurate measurements of the SM
Accurate & precise measurements require fine segmentation
Fine segmentation can be acquired from small scintillators
Motivated to come up with new calorimeter design
Background of the study
Trigger : Scintillator (about 1cmx8cmx5mm ) directly connected to PMT
Source : 90Sr (beta-ray) PMT (sensor) : 16 Ch MAPMT H6568-10, HV : -950V PMT (trigger) : H3164, HV : -900V Sensor : Strip type scintillator ( length: 4,8,12, 16cm) Block type scintillator (thickness: 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8mm) WLS fiber diameter: 1.0mm ; 1.6mm (length: 20, 40, 60, 80, 100,
120, 180, 300 cm)

Results
3M reflective mirror has the greatest light yield
PH increasing with scintillator length on 3M reflective mirror, teflon, white paint with teflon and aluminum evaporation.
PH is almost constant with scint length on white paint and black sheet surface coverings.
No comparison for gold coat since cannot do gold coating for strips longer than 40mm.

Summary
3M reflective mirror covered scintillator found to have the greatest pulse height.
Scintillators using 1.6mm WLS fiber had greater PH compared to scintillators with 1.0mm fiber
PH increasing with scintillator length on 3M reflective mirror, teflon, white paint with teflon and aluminum evaporation.
PH is almost constant with sensor’s length on white paint and black sheet surface coverings.
