| Description | Journal: Journal of Instrumentation The Barrel Time-of-Flight detector system will be installed in the upcoming ANDA experiment at FAIR in Germany. The detector has a barrel shape of =0.5 m and 1.8 m long, covering about 5 $m^{2}$, which corresponds to the laboratory polar angle coverage of $22^{o}<θ<140^{o}$. The detector is a scintillation tile hodoscope. A single scintillation tile segment has a dimension of 90× 30 $mm^{2}$ and 5 mm thickness, and photons are detected by Silicon Photomultipliers at both ends. 4 Silicon Photomultipliers are combined to work as a single sensor in order to increase the sensitive area and to improve the timing performance. In total, the system consists of 1920 scintillator tiles, 3840 readout channels, and makes use of 15360 Silicon Photomultiplier sensors. In this paper, the requirement, design and the result of an actual performance test of the ANDA Barrel Time-of-Flight detector are presented. The test shows that the current design fulfils satisfactorily the required timing performance $(σ_{t~}$ 56 ps) and the timing performance depends little on the hit position on the surface. |
