Abstract

The performance of scaled down prototypes of the STARLAB detector is described. The performance criteria dealt with include resolution, linearity, final image quality, image stability, and rejection of unwanted events. The performance is such as to make the authors confident that the design goals for the STARLAB detector can be realised.
