Progress in the production of aerogel radiators for the RICH detectors in Novosibirsk
Modern projects require large format aerogel radiators. In 2022-2023, several unique aerogel tiles were produced in Novosibirsk. Aerogel blocks larger than 200 by 200 mm in lateral size and 40, 50 mm thickness with a refractive index of 1.03 or 1.05 were fabricated. Also in 2023, for the first time in the world, samples of a multilayer focusing aerogel with overall dimensions of 230×230×35 mm were made.
