-separation in the range 0.2 – 1.2 GeV/c. This talk focuses on two new concepts and the first tests of novel Cherenkov detectors for SCTF, a focusing aerogel RICH (FARICH) and a focusing DIRC (fDIRC). Both require single-photon detection with good coordinate and timing resolution. The prototyping for both versions already started at BINP and Giessen. The tests include various photon detectors (MCP-PMT, SIPM, MPPC). The first results using cosmic muons at the Giessen Cosmic Station are presented.

To accomplish the physical program of studies at the planned Super Charm-Tau Factory electron-positron collider, a high-precision particle identification system is required. A FARICH–ring-imaging ...Cherenkov detector based on focusing aerogel and an array of silicon photomultipliers is proposed. The paper describes a reconstruction algorithm developed for such a detector. The algorithm was tested on simulated pion events with different photodetector noise levels. For dark count rates up to 10

Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics is actively evolving the Super Charm-Tau Factory project. A drift chamber with a small hexagonal cell was proposed for this collider. For experimental measurements ...of a spatial resolution, a drift chamber small prototype consisting of seven cells has been developed. The experiments have been carried out in He/C3H8 (60/40) and He/C2H6 (50/50) gas mixtures at different gas gains using cosmic particles. For this purpose, a calibration procedure for R(t, α) has been developed and fine-tuned, taking into account small prototype features and an angular dependence of isochrones at the edge of the cells. As a result, the average spatial resolutions are less than 100μm for gas gains greater than 5⋅104.

The fast scintillation crystals such as pure CsI or LYSO(Ce) today are considered for timing measurements in future colliding beam experiments. The aim of such counters is to determine time of ...particles arrival with accuracy better than 100 ps. The work is devoted to investigation of influence of Cherenkov radiation on the time resolution of the detectors based on LYSO(Ce) crystals. The results of MC simulation and beam test are presented.
