| Abstract: |
A brief description of the particle identification system (RICH) of the LHCb experiment is given. Preliminary results are given on a test of the solid radiator, the aerogel. The radiation hardness has been tested with γ''s and protons. The photoelectron yield, the Cherenkov angle resolution, and π/p separation were determined with a π− and a mixed π+/proton beam of momentum between 3 and 10 GeV/c. Four large hybrid photodiodes tubes were used as photodetectors. [Copyright &y& Elsevier] |
