Description

The details of the TOPAZ luminosity monitor at KEK are presented. The design concept and construction method are described. Optical fiber was chosen as the material for the light guide because of its flexibility. Results for the performance of counters in electron beam tests are presented. The data acquisition system is also described in detail. (orig.)
