Abstract

The design, manufacture and testing of lightweight glass-coated beryllium spherical converging mirrors for the RICH1 detector of the LHCb experiment are described. The mirrors need to be lightweight to minimize the material budget and fluorocarbon-compatible to avoid degradation in the RICH1 C₄F₁₀ gas radiator. Results of the optical measurements for small-sized prototypes and for a full-sized prototype mirror are reported.
