Ring imaging Cherenkov counter of HERMES for pion, kaon, proton and anti-proton identification

Description

RICH of HERMES was built for identification of pion, kaon, proton and anti-proton in the momentum range of 2–15 GeV/c. It was a dual-radiator RICH. The radiators were aerogel and C4F10 gas. Produced hadrons in electron–nucleon deep inelastic scattering were identified by the RICH and spin structure of the nucleon was studied by correlation between the directions of the target spin, scattered electron and produced hadrons
