Abstract
We describe the particle identification capability of the CLEO RICH system. This system consists of a 1Â cm thick LiF radiator coupled to a photon detector that uses wire proportional chambers filled with a mixture of CH4 and TEA. We discuss the yield of photoelectrons observed per ring and the angular resolution. We show the efficiencies achieved for particle identification and the associated fake rates from data collected with both CLEO III and CLEO-c detectors. Finally, we show examples of the particle separation ability which is excellent for both CLEO III and CLEO-c data.
