Description
In order to locate particle position, it is necessary to have several signals of spaced detectors, since the amplitudes of these signals depend on the particle interaction point. For all position sensitive detectors the crucial characteristic for using as tracking or imaging detector is the accuracy of coordinate determination. The position resolution is closely connected not only with the energy resolutions of detectors but also with the correlations between the signals’ fluctuations. In this paper, general relation between position and energy resolutions that accounts for the correlation between the signals' fluctuations of detectors was derived. This general relation was used for the special cases of two and three detectors’ outputs. Using these formulae and experimental calibration data allows, without any technical improvements of detectors, significantly improve position resolution by rather simple procedure of experimental data handling.
