Cherenkov detector of the AMS experiment : test beam results with a prototype
The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) to be installed on the International Space Station (ISS) will be equipped with a proximity Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) detector for measuring the velocity and electric charge of the charged cosmic particles. This detector will contribute to the high level of redundancy required for AMS as well as to the rejection of albedo particles. Charge separation up ...
متن کاملExperimental study of a proximity focusing Cherenkov counter prototype for the AMS experiment
abstract: A prototype of Proximity Focussing Ring Imaging Cherenkov counter has been built and tested with several radiator materials using separately cosmic-ray particles and 12 C beam fragmentation products at several energies. Counter prototype and experimental setup are described, and the results of measurements reported and compared with simulation results. The performances are discussed i...
متن کاملCherenkov Detector Prototype for ILC Polarimetry
Precise knowledge of all beam parameters is crucial to fully exploit the physics potential of the International Linear Collider (ILC). A sufficiently accurate measurement of the beam polarisation can only be achieved using dedicated high energy Compton polarimeters combined with well-designed Cherenkov detectors. The requirements have been evaluated and a suitable Cherenkov detector prototype h...
متن کاملBeam test of a Time-of-Flight detector prototype
We report on results of a Time-of-Flight, TOF, counter prototype in beam tests at SLAC and Fermilab. Using two identical 64-pixel Photonis Microchannel Plate Photomultipliers, MCP-PMTs, to provide start and stop signals, each having a 1 cm-long quartz Cherenkov radiator, we have achieved a timing resolution of σSingle_detector ~14 ps. To be published in Nucl. Instr.& Methods ——— • Manuscript re...
متن کاملTime-of-Propagation Cherenkov counter for particle identification
We describe here a new concept of a Cherenkov detector for particle identification by means of measuring the Time-of-Propagation (TOP) of Cherenkov photons.
