P. Coyle et al., THE DIRC COUNTER - A NEW-TYPE OF PARTICLE IDENTIFICATION DEVICE FOR B-FACTORIES, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 343(1), 1994, pp. 292-299
A very thin, solid radiator, totally internally reflecting, imaging Ch
erenkov counter (DIRC) is described. This device is well matched to th
