    Cherenkov imaging in particle and nuclear physics experiments
    Oral presentation
    The ALICE High Momentum Particle Identification RICH detector (HMPID), with its 10 m2 of Cesium Iodide (CsI) photo-cathodes is installed, in the ALICE solenoid since fall 2006. Since then, it has been thoroughly commissioned, together with its auxiliary systems, with cosmic rays and beam dump/splash events during various LHC injections tests in 2008 and 2009. Finally, the HMPID has...

  2. 68. The Ring Imaging Cherenkov Detectors of the LHCb Experiment
    Prof. Franz Muheim (University of Edinburgh)

    Cherenkov imaging in particle and nuclear physics experiments
    Oral presentation
    Particle identification is one of the fundamental requirement of the LHCb experiment. Hadron identification is performed by two Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors, comprising three radiators and 484 Hybrid Photon Detectors (HPDs) providing 500,000 channels of data. The particle identification system covers the full angular acceptance of the LHCb spectrometer and is designed to give...

    Cherenkov imaging in particle and nuclear physics experiments
    Oral presentation
    COMPASS RICH-1 is a large gaseous Imaging Cherenkov Detector providing high quality hadron identification in the range from 3 to 60 GeV/c, in the wide acceptance spectrometer of the COMPASS Experiment at CERN SPS. It has been successfully operated since 2002 and its performances have increased in time thanks to progressive optimization and mostly to a major upgrade which was implemented in...

  4. 14. Design, Construction, Operation and Performance of the Hadron Blind Detector for the PHENIX Experiment at RHIC
    Prof. Itzhak Tserruya (Weizmann Institute of Science)

    Cherenkov imaging in particle and nuclear physics experiments
    Oral presentation
    A Hadron Blind Detector (HBD) has been developed for an upgrade of the PHENIX experiment at RHIC. The detector installed in 2008 was successfully operated during the p+p run of 2009 and is presently taking Au+Au data at sNN = 200 GeV. The HBD is a windowless Cherenkov detector, operated with pure CF4 in a special proximity focus configuration. The detector consists of a 50 cm long radiator...

  5. 5. The NA62 RICH detector
    Dr Massimo Lenti (INFN)

    Cherenkov imaging in particle and nuclear physics experiments
    Oral presentation
    The CERN NA62 experiment aims at a 10% measurement of the BR of the K+ into a pi+ and two neutrinos. The main background is the K+ decay into a muon and a neutrino, so pion-muon separation is a crucial ingredient. The RICH detector must separate pions from muons at 3 sigma level between 15 and 35 GeV/c momentum. The RICH must also measure the pion crossing time with a 100 ps resolution to...
