Development of Radiation-Hard Scintillators and Wavelength-Shifting Fibers

Future collider detectors impose unprecedented challenges on the radiation hardness of their detector components. We have performed R&D to develop radiation-hard active media for such detectors, calorimeters in particular. Among the options we have studied, quartz plates with thin radiation-hard coatings, intrinsically radiation-hard scintillators and radiation-hard wavelength-shifting fibers can be listed.Here we describe the recent advances in these developments and dicsuss recent and projected measurements.
