Tagger microscope prototype construction (view source)

The design concept for the Tagger Microscope calls for a scintillating fiber detector array along the focal plane of the spectrally-analyzed beam of electrons. This is a two-dimensional array of broken up into 2 mm<sup>2</sup> patches (as shown in the adjacent figure) representing the cross-sections of the square scintillating fibers. To avoid placing photo-sensors along the path of the electronics, the scintillation light will be delivered to separately-mounted sensors and electronics via clear fiber waveguides.
