A high performance particle identification (PID) system is essential for the successful realization of the broad physics program at the future Super C-τ Factory in Novosibirsk. The main requirements ...for the PID system are as follows: good π/K-separation in the entire operational momentum range and good μ∕π-separation in the momentum range from 0.3 to 1.2 GeV/c. The RICH detector based on focusing aerogel radiator (FARICH) and position-sensitive photon detector meets all these requirements. The FARICH method is described, and the beam test results are presented. The FARICH system design outline for the Super C-τ Factory project is presented. Most promising photon detector options are considered.

Particle identification power of modern aerogel RICH detectors strongly depends on optical quality of radiators. It was shown that wavelength dependence of aerogel tile transparency after polishing ...cannot be described by the standard Hunt formula. The Hunt formula has been modified to describe scattering in a thin layer of silica dust on the surface of aerogel tile. Several procedures of polishing of aerogel tile have been tested. The best result has been achieved while using natural silk tissue. The resulting block has optical smooth surfaces. The measured decrease of aerogel transparency due to surface scattering is about few percent. This result could be used for production of radiators for the Focusing Aerogel RICH detectors.
The particle identification system of the KEDR detector is based on aerogel threshold Cherenkov counters ASHIPH (Aerogel, SHifter, PHotomultiplier).The simulation program of the ASHIPH counters was ...developed on the base of the Geant3.21 package and integrated into the KEDR full detector simulation.

The particle identification system ASHIPH (Aerogel, SHifter, PHotomultiplier) has been working in the KEDR experiment at VEPP-4M collider (Budker INP, Novosibirsk) since 2014. The system consists of ...160 counters arranged in two layers and covers the 96% of the solid angle. Two layer system permits to use different approaches for π/K separation. Three such approaches are described. The status of the system is presented. Main system parameters such as BhaBha suppression factor, π/K separation power, relativistic particle detection efficiency were measured with help of cosmic particles and experimental data collected at the peak of J/ψ-meson. π/K separation in the momentum range from 0.95 to 1.45GeV/c is better than 4σ. Monte-Carlo simulation procedures are described and results are presented as well.
A precise measurement of the cross section of the process e(+)e(-) --> pi(+)pi(-)(gamma) from threshold to an energy of 3 GeV is obtained with the initial state radiation (ISR) method using 232 ...fb(-1) of data collected with the BABAR detector at e(+)e(-) center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV. The ISR luminosity is determined from a study of the leptonic process e(+)e(-) --> mu(+)mu(-)gamma(gamma). The leading-order hadronic contribution to the muon magnetic anomaly calculated using the pipi cross section measured from threshold to 1.8 GeV is (514.1 +/- 2.2(stat) +/- 3.1(syst)) x 10(-10).
The process e+e-→K+K-π0 is studied with the SND detector at the VEPP-2000 e+e- collider. Basing on data with an integrated luminosity of 26.4 pb-1 we measure the e+e-→K+K-π0 cross section in the ...center-of-mass energy range from 1.28 up to 2 GeV. The measured mass spectrum of the Kπ system indicates that the dominant mechanism of this reaction is the transition through the K∗(892)K intermediate state. The cross section for the ϕπ0 intermediate state is measured separately. The SND results are consistent with previous measurements in the BABAR experiment and have comparable accuracy. We study the effect of the interference between the ϕπ0 and K∗K amplitudes. It is found that the interference gives sizable contribution to the measured e+e-→ϕπ0→K+K-π0 cross section below 1.7 GeV.
