    abstract = "The ring imaging Cherenkov detector in the DELPHI Experiment at LEP
allows hadron identification over a momentum range up to about 40 Gev/c
over a near to 4 pi solid angle. Photons emitted by charged particles
traversing gas and liquid radiators which are filled with UV-transparent
perfluorocarbons, are used for Cherenkov angle reconstruction. Stable
operation ensures that the detector is an efficient and powerful
instrument. Monitoring of the detector parameters is of utmost
importance to achieve good data quality and adequate data processing.
The hadron identifying power of the ring imaging Cherenkov detector
closely meets the main design values. Computerized control and
monitoring features of the different subsystems will be presented. The
interplay between detector parameters and the particle separating
capacity of the detector will be discussed."
