✦ Synopsis

A readout electronics system for linear position sensitive 3 He gas detectors has been developed. It is widely used for neutron scattering instruments at KEK Neutron Science Laboratory (KENS). The basic structure of the system is quite versatile, and can be used for various imaging-systems. Several versatile readout systems have been developed at KENS. As one of such examples, a 2-dimensional imaging-system for a wavelength shifting fiber based scintillation counter system has been developed.
