Research and development of a CBM-RICH prototype
Abstract
We have developed a gaseous Ring Imaging CHerenkov detector prototype (PNU-RICH2) of the CBM-RICH detector. This prototype has the same radiator length as the planned CBM-RICH detector. The PNU-RICH2 includes a spherical concave mirror and 2 types of Multi-anode PMTs. The PNU-RICH2 detector has tested at the PAL-TEST LINAC with 60MeV electron beam. A detector performance from the beam test will be presented and discussed in comparison with simulation results.
