Description
The annihilation of the first anti-atom (anti hydrogen) at CERN is detected by a vertex detector which contains scintillating fibers with an empty gap. The interruption of light due to such gap is investigated here. The results show that the behaviour of light losses and the allowed gap shift is defined to be not more than 1.0 mm
