Description
For the Belle II detector a time-of-propagation (TOP) counter is foreseen for
particle identification in the barrel region. In this counter particle identity
is determined from a complicated pattern in the time and position of Cherenkov
photon detection. We will present an extended likelihood method for particle
identification, which is based on an analytical construction of likelihood function.
The method is adopted to various types of TOP counter, including those with
a focusing mirror and an expansion volume at the quartz bar exit window.
Using this method and a Geant based Monte Carlo simulation the performance of
different TOP counter configurations has been studied. We will discuss these results.
