Abstract
A method of testing of threshold SiO2 aerogel Cherenkov detectors using cosmic radiation is described. The method requires a minimum amount of additional electronics and does not involve massive absorber layers (e.g., lead). The method makes it possible to directly take into account the threshold in determining the efficiency of the detectors under study and to test their operation in different energy ranges for relativistic charged particles. Good agreement between the results of the simulation and measurements was obtained.
期刊介绍：
Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics is an international peer reviewed journal published with the participation of the Russian Academy of Sciences. It presents full-text articles (regular, letters to the editor, reviews) with the most recent results in miscellaneous fields of physics and astronomy: nuclear physics, cosmic rays, condensed matter physics, plasma physics, optics and photonics, nanotechnologies, solar and astrophysics, physical applications in material sciences, life sciences, etc. Bulletin of the Russian Academy of Sciences: Physics focuses on the most relevant multidisciplinary topics in natural sciences, both fundamental and applied. Manuscripts can be submitted in Russian and English languages and are subject to peer review. Accepted articles are usually combined in thematic issues on certain topics according to the journal editorial policy. Authors featured in the journal represent renowned scientific laboratories and institutes from different countries, including large international collaborations. There are globally recognized researchers among the authors: Nobel laureates and recipients of other awards, and members of national academies of sciences and international scientific societies.
