Why SiPM/MPPC for RICH ? • Cons. • Noize • Size • Rad. hardness ? • Pros. • High PDE • B field immunity Toru Iijima, PD07 @ Kobe Comparison to other photodetctors
Possibility of G-APD for RICH To improve S/N … • Increase the number of signal hits/sensor by using light collectors (with optimization of pad size to the ring thickness). • Reduce the noise by a narrow time window (<10ns). Light collector serves as a light emitter for TOF measurement. SiPM / MPPC + Optics (Light-guide.

2mm 5mm Expected RICH Performance Arbitrary The simulation is adjusted to reproduce beam test results with multi-anode PMT. Should be corrected for cross talk / after-pulse contribution (because PDE based DC current measurement is used here). A photosensor based on Light-guide + Geiger-mode APD can give x 4 Npe (number of detected photons).

Summary • Geiger-mode APD is very attractive device as a photosensor for a RICH with aerogel radiator. • High PDE Significant increase in Npe (x 4 possible). • Good time resolution (s~100ps /p.e.) RICH w/ TOF • Free from magnetic field Large advantage ! • Noise rate has been reduced significantly and in a tolerable region (<1MHz/pad) for recent products from HPK . Very encouraging ! • Light colletction based on tapered lightguide (+lens) will be useful to increase the detection area, and hence improve S/N. • Devices with larger size (□3~5mm) are highly welcome. We are starting to measure □3mm sample from HPK. Toru Iijima, PD07 @ Kobe
