The ring imaging Čerenkov detector for the BRAHMS Experiment at RHIC
A ring-imaging Čerenkov counter, to be read out by four 100channel PMT’s, is a key element of the BRAHMS Experiment. We report here the most recent results obtained with a prototype tested at the BNL AGS using several radiator gases, including the heavy fluorocarbon C4F10 . Ring radii were measured for different particles (π−, μ−, e−) for momenta ranging from 2 to 12 GeV/c employing pure C4F10 ...
متن کاملAn iterative method for the analysis of Cherenkov rings in the HERA-B RICH
A new method is presented for the analysis of data recorded with a Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) counter. The method, an iterative sorting of hits on the photon detector, is particularly useful for events where rings overlap considerably. The algorithm was tested on simulated data for the HERA-B experiment. ( 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملIn-beam tests of a ring imaging Čerenkov detector with a multianode photomultiplier readout
A ring-imaging Čerenkov counter read out by a 100-channel PMT of active area 10×10 cm was operated successfully in a test beam at the BNL AGS with several radiator gases, including the heavy fluorocarbon C4F10 . Ring radii were measured for electrons, muons, pions and kaons over the particle momentum range from 2 to 12 GeV/c, and a best resolution of σr/r = 2.3% was obtained.
متن کاملA RICH Multiplicity Veto for the HERA-B Experiment
We present the design and commissioning of a new multiplicity veto for the HERA B detector, a fixed-target spectrometer originally designed to study the physics of B mesons in proton-nucleus interactions. The HERA B trigger is a message-driven multi-level track trigger. The first level trigger (FLT) consists of custom-made electronics, and the higher trigger levels are implemented as PC farms. ...
متن کاملCharm and Beauty Production at HERA–B
The HERA–B experiment at DESY has acquired a data-set of approximately 300,000 decays J/ψ→ l+l− during its 2002/2003 data-taking period. These data are used to analyze the production of heavy quarks in proton-nucleus interactions at a center-of-mass energy of 41.6 GeV. In this article, preliminary results of two measurements are discussed, a measurement of nuclear effects in the production of J...
