Time-of-Flight PID/Evidence
Method evidence record

Time-of-Flight PID

Time-of-Flight (ToF) particle identification measures the time taken for a particle to travel a known distance, enabling determination of the particle's velocity and mass. This complementary technique to Cherenkov and ionization energy loss provides robust particle separation across wide momentum ranges in modern detectors.
