Description
In this paper a concept for a particle identifier in a detector for a B-factory is described. The identifier is based on a multi cell aerogel threshold Cerenkov counter. The individual cells are read out by wavelength shifter fibers coupled to avalanche photodiodes operated in the single photon trigger mode. A double layer of Aerogel with different refractive indices allows one to cover the momentum range from 0.4 to 2.7 GeV momentum. Expected performances, first tests and a development program are presented
