A particle detector system comprising a channel image intensifier having a planar output electrode subdivided into an array of parallel electrode conductors with each conductor connected to a separate terminal, an array of parallel target conductors lying in a plane parallel to the electrode conductors on the output side of the device and orientated perpendicular to the electrode conductors, and a second set of terminals each of which is associated with one of the target conductors. The target conductors may be associated with luminescent elements to generate a two-dimensional visual display.
