Abstract :
COMPASS RICH-1, designed in 1996 for hadron identification at high momenta in the COMPASS large angle spectrometer, is based on the use of MWPCs with large size CsI photon detectors. This choice, dictated by technical and economical considerations, has imposed VUV requirements for mirror reflectance and radiator transparency.
tector is now fully operative and its preliminary performances are presented.
