M. Artuso et al., THE CLEO-III RING IMAGING CHERENKOV DETECTOR, Nuclear instruments & methods in physics research. Section A, Accelerators, spectrometers, detectors and associated equipment, 409(1-3), 1998, pp. 375-378
The CLEO detector is undergoing major improvements in conjunction with
a high luminosity upgrade of the CESR e(+)e(-) collider. A novel elem
ent is a state of the art particle identification system, based on a p
roximity focused Ring Imaging Cherenkov detector. This detector will p
rovide an excellent hadron identification at all the momenta relevant
to the study of the decays of B mesons produced at the Upsilon(4S) res
onance. Some features unique to our design will be discussed together
with some results achieved on individual components. (C) 1998 Elsevier
