Abstract

We present the aerogel efficiencies of the Cherenkov counters used as a sub-component of Bates large acceptance spectrometer toroid. The events of the elastic channel of electron–proton scattering from hydrogen is utilized. The counters’ aerogel efficiencies change between (91.5 \({\pm}\) 0.3) and (98.6 \({\pm}\) 0.6) % based on a time-of-flight scintillation paddle. In addition, up to ~7 % variation in the local efficiencies per paddle is attributable to statistical fluctuations and no local inefficient aerogel pockets are encountered.
