Cherenkov radiation — glowing in the core of the Advanced Test Reactor … Wikipedia
Particle identification — is the process of using information left by a particle passing through a particle detector to identify the type of particle. Particle identification reduces backgrounds and improves measurement resolutions, and is essential to many analyses at… … Wikipedia
Cherenkov detector — A Cherenkov (Čerenkov) detector is a particle detector using the mass dependent threshold energy of Cherenkov radiation. This allows a discrimination between a lighter particle (which does radiate) and a heavier particle (which does not radiate) … Wikipedia
Particle detector — In experimental and applied particle physics and nuclear engineering, a particle detector, also known as a radiation detector, is a device used to detect, track, and/or identify high energy particles, such as those produced by nuclear decay,… … Wikipedia
Cherenkov, Pavel Alekseyevich — ▪ Soviet physicist Cherenkov also spelled Čerenkov born July 15 [July 28, New Style], 1904, Novaya Chigla, Russia died Jan. 6, 1990, U.S.S.R. Soviet physicist who shared the 1958 Nobel Prize for Physics with fellow Soviet scientists Igor … Universalium
Cherenkov radiation — Light produced by charged particles when they pass through an optically transparent medium at speeds greater than the speed of light in that medium. For example, when electrons from a nuclear reactor travel through shielding water, they do so at… … Universalium
Cherenkov Array at Themis — The Cherenkov Array at Themis (CAT) imager is an atmospheric Cherenkov imaging telescope for detection of high energy gamma rays (>200 GeV), sited in the French Pyrenees. External links Cherenkov Array at Themis (CAT) on the internet… … Wikipedia
Particle shower — In particle physics, a shower is a cascade of secondary particles produced as the result of a high energy particle interacting with dense matter. The incoming particle interacts, producing multiple new particles with lesser energy; each of these… … Wikipedia
Detection of internally reflected Cherenkov light — In particle physics experiments a Detection of Internally Reflected Cherenkov light (DIRC) detector measures the velocity of charged particles and is used for particle identification. It is a design of a Ring imaging Cherenkov detector where… … Wikipedia
Pavel Cherenkov — Born 15 July 1904 (1904 07 15) … Wikipedia
Detector of internally-reflected Cherenkov light — The Detector of Internally Reflected Čerenkov light (DIRC) was first proposed by Blair Ratcliff as a tool for particle ID at a B Factory. As a particle traveling close to the speed of light passes through the quartz it emits Čerenkov radiation,… … Wikipedia
