Test results for the V0 detector in ALICE

In this report, we describe the V0 detector, a device made of two arrays of scintillating counters (V0L and V0R) installe d on both sides of the ALICE in teraction vertex. The light yield and the time resolution were measured for several prototype counter s which were tested on the PS T10 beam...

Sumario:In this report, we describe the V0 detector, a device made of two arrays of scintillating counters (V0L and V0R) installe d on both sides of the ALICE in teraction vertex. The light yield and the time resolution were measured for several prototype counter s which were tested on the PS T10 beam line and with cosmic rays. Results from the test and from simulations are reported.
