Many high energy diagnostic techniques leverage Cherenkov radiation because of its relatively unique properties compared to other forms of radiation emission. Cherenkov detectors are used in nuclear physics, cosmic ray physics, particle physics and inertial confinement fusion. Jelley[1] notes the following advantages Fast counting, short response times and high count rates can…
