TL;DR: In this paper, a Cherenkov angular resolution of 8 mrad is obtained by detecting a mean of 8 photoelectrons per ring per ring, and the results obtained with photons impinging at a large angle on the CsI layer are presented and discussed in comparison with higher quantum efficiencies observed under different experimental conditions.

TL;DR: The results obtained by the CERN RD26 collaboration on the production and characterization of large area photocathodes, susceptible to equip fast UV-photon imaging devices, are reported in this article.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a simulation of the response of a solid photocathode (CsI) proximity focusing RICH detector for the future heavy ion ALICE experiment at the LHC accelerator at CERN.

TL;DR: The multistep avalanche chamber (MSAC) was used in the experiment NA35 at CERN as photon detector of a ring imaging Cherenkov counter (RICH) that upgraded the experimental setup of a vertex streamer chamber by providing particle identification in the 1.5-3.5 GeV/c region as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: A 50 × 50 cm2 RICH detector prototype with optical readout has been tested during the 1992 32S run period at the CERN SPS, to provide particle identification in the momentum range 1.5 − 4.0 GeV/c as mentioned in this paper.
