A silica aerogel Cerenkov counter with diffusing walls
A Cerenkov counter with an active area of 28*80 cm/sup 2/, using silica aerogel with a refractive index 1.03 is described. The light is collected by diffuse reflecting walls. With 9 cm of aerogel 9 photoelectrons are obtained for beta =1 particles. Scintillations in the walls of the detector amount...
