The TORCH project

TORCH is a DIRC-style detector concept designed for high-precision time-of-flightmeasurements over large areas. It has been proposed for the upgrade of the LHCbexperiment to complement the particle identification capabilities of the RICHdetectors, covering the momentum region 1.5–10 GeV/c for K–πsep...

Sumario:TORCH is a DIRC-style detector concept designed for high-precision time-of-flightmeasurements over large areas. It has been proposed for the upgrade of the LHCbexperiment to complement the particle identification capabilities of the RICHdetectors, covering the momentum region 1.5–10 GeV/c for K–πseparation. The current status of the detector design and R&D; is presented.
