    Hi Christian,
    
    Thanks for the "common base class" update. Maybe we can even make it a
    common chkv base class, since the photons are generated the same way in
    the different chkv detectors. Or, we could choose the easy solution
    and just put it in BrChkvParameters (I know it's ugly, but it would be a
    quick fix and it would work).

    I don't think anyone really knows how to make photons in GEANT and since
    we can do the job as good ourself, why bother? But you're more than
    welcome to look into it.
    
    For the mirror, I don't think it matters since we don't care about what
    happens behind the RICH. Unless it goes back into the detectors of course,
    but I think the chance for that is very small. But I'll probably put
    something in there anyway, just to make you happy ;-)
    
    Cheers,
    
    Claus
