A plastic material with high optical transmission in the UV range
Abstract We have measured the transmission of a 25 μm thick foil of teflon AF in the ultra violet region. The properties of this material allow one to use it for protecting UV sensitive materials against external contaminations.

A FAST RICH PROTOTYPE WITH A CSI PHOTOCATHODE
Abstract A fast RICH prototype with a CsI photocathode has been built. The quantum efficiency has been estimated by two independent techniques: a UV lamp measurement and a detection of Cherenkov light produced in a liquid radiator. The crucial influence of the photocathode substrate on the quantum yield is demonstrated in this paper. The results obtained with our prototype have been used to simulate the performances of a Fast RICH for a B meson factory.

INDICO : the software behind CHEP 2004
At the end of the year 2003, the Programme and Local Organising Committees of the Computing in High Energy Physics conference 2004 decided to use the InDiCo platform [1] as the computing supportfor the event. At this time, the Integrated Digital Conferencing project was proposing its first implementation of a web application for organising conferences. In this article, we will explain some details of InDiCo software, how it has been conceived and how it has been validated throughout the organisation of CHEP04.
