Abstract: Silica aerogel blocks are being produced for use in Cherenkov detectors by a collaboration of Boreskov Institute of Catalysis and Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics since 1986. Novosibirsk aerogel is used in several detectors; among them are KEDR, SND (BINP, Novosibirsk), LHCb (CERN, Geneva), AMS (for International Space Station mission) and others. Currently our investigations are going on in two directions: multilayer aerogels for Focusing Aerogel RICH and aerogels with high index of refraction. We have synthesized two-, three- and four-layer aerogel tiles with dimensions of 115 mm×115 mm. We have modernized the method of pinhole drying for preparation of aerogels with refractive index in the range of 1.07–1.20.
