Abstract

The Super C-τ (SCT) Factory at Novosibirsk is a project of new colliding beam experiment proposed in Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics. Electron-positron collider based on Crab-Waist technique for operation energy range 2–5 GeV in center of mass is suggested. The luminosity up to 1035cm−1s−1 (in 100 times higher than in operated today experiments in this energy region) is expected. To perform broad experimental program of the project successfully the excellent particle identification (PID) system is needed. A number of options are under consideration. Three of them are described in the paper: Focusing Aerogel RICH (FARICH) detector, threshold Cherenkov counters based on ASHIPH (Aerogel SHifter PHotomultiplier) technique with 6000 litres of aerogel of two refractive indexes and time-of-flight counters with TOP (Time of Propagation) approach with time resolution better than 30 ps. Comparison of PID capabilities with help of parametric simulation is given.
