Abstract
R&D on new radiation-hard wavelength shifting fibers is gaining crucial importance as the radiation conditions projected for the High Luminosity LHC and future hadron and lepton colliders reach unprecedented levels. We have identified materials with proven radiation resistance, long Stokes shifts to enable long self-absorption lengths, with decay constants ~ 10 ns or less. Here we describe two strong candidates' Doped ZnO:Zn/Mg and 3HF (3-hydroxyflavone) properties along with other material options and report on basic performance characteristics of recent prototypes.
