Glass-coated beryllium mirrors for the LHCb RICH1 detector

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research, Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment 570:3 (2007) 565-572

Authors:

GJ Barber, NH Brook, W Cameron, C D'Ambrosio, C Frei, N Harnew, R Head, YP Khimitch, V Khmelnikov, P Loveridge, FCD Metlica, V Obraztsov, D Piedigrossi, V Sizenev, PM Szczypka, O Ullaland, E Vygosky, D Websdale

Abstract:

The design, manufacture and testing of lightweight glass-coated beryllium spherical converging mirrors for the RICH1 detector of the LHCb experiment are described. The mirrors need to be lightweight to minimize the material budget and fluorocarbon-compatible to avoid degradation in the RICH1 C4F10 gas radiator. Results of the optical measurements for small-sized prototypes and for a full-sized prototype mirror are reported. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Lightweight CFRP spherical mirrors for the LHCb RICH-1 detector - art. no. 66700O

P SOC PHOTO-OPT INS 6670 (2007) O6700-O6700

Authors:

RN Martin, RC Romeo, G Barber, A Braem, N Brook, B Cameron, C D'Ambrosio, N Harnew, K Lessnoff, F Metlica, D Websdale

Abstract:

The design, manufacture and testing of lightweight Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) converging spherical mirrors for the RICH-1 Cherenkov detector of LHCb are described. The mirrors have low areal density to minimize the amount of material in the path of traversing particles and need to be fluorocarbon compatible to avoid degradation in the C4F10 radiator gas. The total area is about 2m(2) and high reflectivity (typically 90%) over the wavelength range 200-600nm is required.
