Description

The threshold Čerenkov counter based on dense aerogel with refraction index n =1.13 is described. This counter is used for π/K separation at SND detector at VEPP-2000 e+e collider in the particle momentum range up to 1 GeV/c. The results on separation efficiency for hadrons produced in e+e annihilation are presented
