Description

We present the characterization of two planes composed of 8 bars (125 × 4 × 0.7 cm³) made by plastic scintillator coupled to two WLS fibers and read out by four MPPCs at the ends. We performed an event-by-event analysis of the raw signals and implemented a coincidence logic to obtain the SPE calibration using cosmic-ray runs. A monitoring system was established after data quality control.
