Abstract

A delay-line position readout system connected to the proportional counter of a gas-filled heavy-ion detector was constructed and tested in a magnetic spectrograph. The measured position resolution was less than 0.3 mm (fwhm) which is 0.1% of the full detector length (250 mm). The differential nonlinearity of the readout system was found to be less than 1.0 mm.
