WThis technical note describes a prototype particle tracking detector constructed with1 mm plastic scintillating bres with a 64 channel Hamamatsu H8500 t-panel multi-anode photomultiplier readout. Cosmic ray tracks from an array of 11 gas-filled drift tubes were matched to signals in the scintillating bres in order to measure the resolution and effciency of tracks reconstructed in the bre-based tracker. A GEANT4 detector simulation was also developed to compare cosmic ray data with MC results and is discussed in the note. Using the parameters measured in this experimental setup, modi ed bre tracker designs are suggested to improve resolution and e ciency in future prototypes to meet modern detector specifications.
