Abstract
This paper describes the development of a 163-channel Hybrid Photo-Diode (HPD) to be used in the RICH Detector for the BTEV Experiment. This is a joint development project with DEP, Netherlands. It also reports on the development of associated front-end readout electronics based on the va_btev ASIC, undertaken with IDEAS, Norway. Results from bench tests of the first prototypes are presented.
Presented at Fourth International Workshop on RICH Detectors, Pylos Greece, June, 2002; to appear in the proceedings. (5 pages, 4 figures)
