Novel photon timing techniques in the LHCb RICH upgrade programme

The Ring-Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors at LHCb have an excellent intrinsic time resolution owing to the prompt Cherenkov radiation and focusing mirrors optics. While only spatial information has been used in the experiment to date, the addition of photon time information is one of the cornersto...

description The Ring-Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detectors at LHCb have an excellent intrinsic time resolution owing to the prompt Cherenkov radiation and focusing mirrors optics. While only spatial information has been used in the experiment to date, the addition of photon time information is one of the cornerstones of the RICH upgrade programme. The novel timing techniques presented on this poster provide a powerful tool for background suppression and particle ID performance improvements using state of the art electronics.
