This proposal outlines the use of Multianode Photo Multiplier Tubes (MAPMTs) as photodetectors for the LHCb RICH system. The proposal covers the introduction, R&D results, baseline design, and conclusion by Franz Muheim. MAPMTs offer single-photon sensitivity, good spatial resolution, and a large active area fraction, meeting the stringent requirements for the LHCb experiment. The proposal details the MAPMT specifications, results of bench tests and beam setups, photon yields with and without quartz lenses, analyses of charged particles impact, and magnetic field tests. The baseline design includes tilted modules with 4x4 arrays, bleeder boards, and mu-metal shields. Overall, the proposal demonstrates that commercial MAPMTs fulfill the LHCb RICH specifications effectively.
