Scientific paper

This paper describes the Multiwire Proportional Counter (MWPC) designed and built at the prototype level at the Istituto di Astrofisica Spaziale. This position-sensitive detector will be flown on board a balloon-borne experiment as a high-resolution/wide-angle hard X-ray telescope and will produce sky images with arcmin angular resolution, good spectral resolution, and milli-Crab sensitivity, during a typical observation time of 10,000 sec.
