Abstract:
Beam tests were performed to investigate the performance of a prototype of the downstream ring imaging counter (RICH) of the LHCb using hybrid photodiodes and multi-anode photomultipliers. The Cerenkov angle resolution obtained for the three types of photodetectors tested agreed well with the expectations from simulations. Using 61-pixel hybrid photodiodes, a single photon resolution of 0.35 mrad was attained and the particle identification capability was demonstrated.First observation of Cherenkov ring images using hybrid photon detectors

Abstract:
A ring-imaging Cherenkov detector, equipped with hybrid photon detectors, has been operated in a charged-particlc beam. Focussed ring images from various particle types were detected using silica aerogel, air and C4F10 gas radiators. The detector, a prototype for the CERN LHC-B experiment, is described and first observations are reported, © IWS Elsevier Science B.V.
