Abstract
In connection with the design of the electromagnetic calorimeter of th e KLOE detector, we have studied the performance of several samples of commercially available plastic scintillating fibers with a particle b eam at the CERN PS. Results on light yield, attenuation length and tim e resolution measurements concerning 2-4.5 m long samples of those fib ers are presented.
