bar thickness

  • DIRC@EIC design; 11 bars; 4x6 MCP-PMT array; 3-layer sperical lens with nlak33
  • 3 mm pixels HIQ400, CE=95%
  • 100 ps time precision
  • time imaging reconstruction with simulated PDFs (30k for each particle type)
  • geometrical reconstruction with averaged LUT from 5M photons
  • 0.8 tracking resolution. See track resolution scan for more.

Effect of multiple scattering is determined by calculating angle between v1 and v2:
