The Cleo III Detector
Abstract
After a long shutdown in 1999, the CLEO Collaboration at Cornell University's Wilson Laboratory began taking data in 2000 using its third generation detector, CLEO III. Several improvements to the detector system have been made in order to take advantage of the possibility of unprecedented luminosities of well over 2×1033 expected from CESR, and to explore new territory in the physics of B mesons. These improvements include a new drift chamber, a four layer silicon vertex detector and a RICH detector. These features will be described, and its performance will be presented.
