Abstract

COMPASS is a fixed target experiment at CERN SPS designed to perform third generation polarized deep inelastic scattering measurements and hadron spectroscopy studies. Part of the set-up, a ring imaging Cherenkov (RICH 1), is presently under construction. Its design has been achieved with the help of a dedicated Monte Carlo simulation built to study the optical properties of the detector. The optimization of the position of the photon detector with respect to the RICH mirror and on the alignment of the mirror elements forming the mirror surface is reported.
