The Dirc Counter: a New Type of Particle Identification Device for B Factories*
A very thin, solid radiator, totally internally reflecting, imaging Cherenkov counter (DIRC) is described. This device is well matched to the hadronic charged particle identification requirements at an asymmetric e+eB Factory.
متن کاملSimulation and Reconstruction of the PANDA Barrel DIRC
The PANDA experiment at the facility for anti-proton and ion research (FAIR) will study the strong interaction by precision spectroscopy. A detector system with excellent particle identification (PID) is therefore required. Charged hadron identification in the barrel region will be performed by a compact ring imaging Cherenkov detector based on the DIRC (Detection of Internally Reflected Cheren...
متن کاملConstruction and Performance of the BABAR-DIRC
The new type of ring-imaging Cherenkov detector technology called Dirc (an acronym for Detection of Internally Reflected Cherenkov (Light)) has been used successfully for hadronic particle identification in the BABAR experiment at the B Factory (PEP-II) located at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. This paper describes the R&D for and the construction of the Dirc radiator bars and the pe...
