| DRAFT DEFINITION | 
| Postacceleration detector | 
|---|
| A detector in which the charged particles are accelerated to a high velocity and impinge on a conversion dynode, emitting secondary electrons. The electrons are accelerated onto a phosphor screen, which emits photons that are in turn detected using a photomultiplier or other photon detector. | 
| Considered between 2004 and 2006 but not included in the 2006 PAC submission | 
| This is an unofficial draft definition presented for information and comment. |
