TORCH pattern recognition and particle identification performance
/ Garcia Martin, L M (Warwick U.) ; Blake, T (Warwick U.) ; Brook, N H (Bath U.) ; Cicala, M F (Warwick U.) ; Cussans, D (Bristol U.) ; van Dijk, M W U (CERN) ; Forty, R (CERN) ; Gershon, T (Warwick U.) ; Gys, T (CERN) ; Hadavizadeh, T (Oxford U.) et al.
The TORCH detector aims to provide K/π (K/p) separation up to a momentum of about 10 (15) by measuring their time-of-flight at the LHCb detector. Prompt Cherenkov photons are produced in a quartz radiator bar of 10 mm thickness, and propagated via total internal reflection to the periphery of the detector, where they are focused onto an array of microchannel plate photomultipliers that measure the photon arrival time and position.

Measurement of the cross-section ratio σ$_{ψ(2S)}$/σ$_{J/ψ(1S)}$ in exclusive photoproduction at HERA
/ ZEUS Collaboration
The exclusive photoproduction reactions $\gamma p \to J/\psi(1S) p$ and $\gamma p \to \psi(2S) p$ have been measured at an $ep$ centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 373 pb$^{-1}$. The measurement was made in the kinematic range $30 < W < 180$ GeV, $Q^2 < 1$ GeV$^2$ and $|t| < 1$ GeV$^2$, where $W$ is the photon--proton centre-of-mass energy, $Q^2$ is the photon virtuality and $t$ is the squared four-momentum transfer at the proton vertex.

TORCH is a large-area and high-precision time-of-flight detector, designed to provide charged particle identification over a 2–20GeV/c momentum range. The TORCH detector comprises a 10 mm thick quartz radiator, instrumented with photon detectors, which precisely time and measure the arrival positions of the Cherenkov photons. [...]

TORCH is a novel time-of-flight detector, designed to provide charged particle identification of pions, kaons and protons in the momentum range 2-20 GeV/c over a 9.5 m flight path. A detector module, comprising a 10mm thick quartz plate, provides a source of Cherenkov photons which propagate via total internal reflection to one end of the plate. [...]

TORCH is a large-area, high-precision time-of-flight (ToF) detector designed to provide charged-particle identification in the 2-20 GeV$/c$ momentum range. Prompt Cherenkov photons emitted by charged hadrons as they traverse a 10mm quartz radiator are propagated to the periphery of the detector, where they are focused onto an array of micro-channel plate photomultiplier tubes (MCP-PMTs).

Azimuthal correlations in photoproduction and deep inelastic $ep$ scattering at HERA
/ ZEUS Collaboration
Collective behaviour of final-state hadrons, and multiparton interactions are studied in high-multiplicity $ep$ scattering at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s}=318$ GeV with the ZEUS detector at HERA. Two- and four-particle azimuthal correlations, as well as multiplicity, transverse momentum, and pseudorapidity distributions for charged-particle multiplicities $N_{\textrm ch} \geq 20$ are measured.

The TORCH time-of-flight detector is designed to provide a 15 ps timing resolution for charged particles, resulting in $K/\pi$ $(p/K)$ particle identification up to momentum of about 10(15) GeV/$c$ over a 10 m flight distance. Cherenkov photons, produced in a quartz plate of 10 mm thickness, are focused onto an array of micro-channel plate photomultipliers (MCP-PMTs) which measure the photon arrival times and spatial positions.
