    Journal Article

    An Electron-Ion Collider (EIC) has been proposed to further explore the strong force and QCD, focusing on the structure and the interaction of gluon-dominated matter. A generic detector R&D program (EIC PID consortium) for the particle identification in EIC experiments was formed to explore technologically advanced solutions in this scope. In this context two Ring Imaging Cherenkov (RICH) counters have been proposed: a modular RICH detector which consists of an aerogel radiator, a Fresnel lens, a mirrored box, and pixelated photon sensor; a dual-radiator RICH, consisting of an aerogel radiator and C2F6 gas in a mirror-focused configuration. We present the simulations of the two detectors and their estimated performance. •Compact Fresnel lens based RICH for the electronendcap of the Elecron-Ion Collider.•Large acceptance, magnetic tolerant, dual-radiator RICH for the hadron-endcap of the Electron-Ion Collider.•Simulation, characterization and performance evaluation.
