Abstract
A study of a cylindrical Cerenkov detector, with the aim of investigating a possible application of such a detector for distinguishing between pions and kaons, in the range of a few GeV/c, has been carried out. The detector design could, for example, be used for the experimental B-physics study with the upgraded collider detectors at the Fermilab Tevatron. Simulation methods were used to find the response of several configurations of such a detector as a function of the incident pion and kaon energies in the energy range of a few giga electron volts. It is shown that a straightforward configuration based on conventional materials could work.
