Tests of large Cherenkov detectors with silica aerogel as radiator

Cerenkov detectors with silica aerogel as radiator, and a detector surface of about 18*52 cm/sup 2/, have been tested in a particle beam at the CERN Proton Synchrotron. For 9 cm thickness of silica aerogel the number of photoelectrons for beta =1 particles was found to be 4.6 and 5.5 respectively, d...

description Cerenkov detectors with silica aerogel as radiator, and a detector surface of about 18*52 cm/sup 2/, have been tested in a particle beam at the CERN Proton Synchrotron. For 9 cm thickness of silica aerogel the number of photoelectrons for beta =1 particles was found to be 4.6 and 5.5 respectively, depending on the light collection system used. (11 refs).
