Performance of the Scintillator System Prototype of the NUCLEON Space Experiment
Abstract
The NUCLEON space experiment has been proposed to perform direct measurements of CR energy spectrum and composition up to E ∼ 1015 eV. The NUCLEON detector consists of layers of different detectors: scintillator detectors with WLS fibers and silicon pad and microstrip ones. The results of beam and space qualification tests of the scintillator detectors are presented.
