Description

One of the subsystems of the phase 1-st of the SPD experiment is the Beam-Beam Counter (BBC). The BBC is designed as a high granularity scintillation detector, divided by sectors and containing about 800 channels.
Previously, a series of studies was conducted for the selection of optimal prototype materials, and a method for testing a single scintillation tiles was proposed. A prototype of the small ring BBC is currently underway. In this regard, it becomes an urgent task to develop a tool for quick verification of the assembled sector together with electronics.
A study of the performance of assembled 8-channel sectors of a small ring prototype using Side Glow Fiber is presented. The developed approach is recommended for application within the BBC subsystem as an alternative to the use of ionizing radiation sources.
