Abstract
A scintillating fiber tracker system consisting of more than one milli on fibers has been successfully constructed and made operational for t he CERN WA95/CHORUS experiment. The design and construction of the tra cker system as well as its opto-electronic readout are described. The performance of the detector with high-energy muons is presented.
