Abstract :
A study was carried out to measure the performance of a proximity focusing RICH with aerogel as radiator and multianode PMTs as detectors of Cerenkov photons. To increase the active area, a light collection system using a single lens per PMT tube was employed. The yield and resolution were measured by using cosmic rays.
