Abstract
The RICH-1 detector of the COMPASS experiment at CERN SPS has been upgraded for the 2016 physics run: four MWPC-based photon detectors have been replaced by newly developed detectors based on MPGD technologies, for a total active area of 1.4 m2. The new detector architecture consists in a hybrid combination of two layers of THGEMs, the first acting as a reflective photocathode, and a Micromegas equipped with a pad segmented anode. The signals are read out via capacitive coupling by an analog F-E based on the APV25 chip. The characteristics and the performance of the new hybrid photon detectors are presented.
