Abstract：
Plastic scintillators with many advantages are widely used in particle physics. Researches on plastic scintillator response at both high energy and high electric charge are significant to the experiments in high energy physics and cosmic ray physics. In addition to many important astrophysical results, the high energy cosmic rays experiments at the University of Chicago accumulate data for plastic scintillator response to relativistic particles of high electric charges. This paper introduces the cosmic ray experiments mentioned above, presents data analysis results and the discusses the nonlinear response of plastic scintillators.
