Abstract
This project is concerned with the performance
of plastic scintillation detectors in the detection of
protons and indication of their energy. Of specific interest
are proton-proton scattering events in which both protons
are detected in coincidence and their energies analyzed.
It is required that the scintillators are large to subtend
a large solid angle at a given distance and that they indicate the
energy of incident protons accurately. The detector
in question consisted of NE. 102 scintillation plastic mounted
on an RCA 8055 photomultiplier tube.
