Setup for COSY RICH testbox DPG 2018 V. Patel Overview Cherenkov prototype detector Setup for COSY beam for COSY beam test in Nov test 2017 Test results Two fully equipped 3x2 module, 12 MAPMTs, glass/ quartz radiator. 6 of which were coated with wavelength shifting coating for testing UV efficiency. Slide: 4

Test Parameters and Initial results DPG 2018 V. Patel There were many parameters tested during this beam test. Overview Main motive was to check the DiRICH concept in real Setup for COSY beam beam conditions. test In particular hit multiplicity. Test results Noise behaviour in MAPMT and readout electronics. Ring sharpness. Single photon detection efficiency. Expected time precision from electronics. (HK21.4 - Time resolution of the DiRICH MAPMT readout with and without WLS coverage by Adrian Amatus Weber) To check the gain in photons due to wavelength shifting coating on MAPMTs. Slide: 5

Hit Multiplicity DPG 2018 Hit Multiplicity ratios for different combinations of WLS V. Patel coating Overview Ratio normalized to No WLS Setup for 1.25 COSY beam test Ratio of WLS on ALL pmts & WLS on NO pmt Test results 1.2 Ratio of WLS on HALF pmts & WLS on NO PMT Ratio of WLS on ALL pmts & WLS on HALF PMTs 1.15 Ratio normalization to WLS on NO pmt 1.1 1.05 1 50 100 150 200 250 Threshold in mV Slide: 9

Summary DPG 2018 V. Patel Overview Beam test at COSY was successful. Setup for COSY beam Initial results shows that concept of DiRICH will work. test WLS coating increases the Multiplicity ∽ 23% Test results Plan is to equip inner part of HADES-RICH with WLS coated MAPMTs. Upgraded HADES-RICH will see its first beam in last quater of 2018 at SIS 18, GSI. Mass production of DiRICH has already began. It is expected that the delivery will start in March-April 2018.
