Physics sources of noise in ring imaging Cherenkov detectors for the ALICE HMPID group

The combination of a simulation program for the detector response with a transport code like FLUKA allows the detailed study of physics sources of noise in the RICH. As an example we present the results of a full simulation of the RICH response in the ALICE radiation environment for the highest anti...

description The combination of a simulation program for the detector response with a transport code like FLUKA allows the detailed study of physics sources of noise in the RICH. As an example we present the results of a full simulation of the RICH response in the ALICE radiation environment for the highest anticipated charged particle multiplicities of 8000 particles per unit of rapidity in central PbPb collisions at square root s=5.5 TeV/nucleon. The contributions of primary and secondary charged and neutral particles to the overall occupancy are discussed. (8 refs).
