The 12th international workshop on Ring Imaging Cherenkov Detectors (RICH2025) took place September 15-19, 2025 in Mainz, Germany. The conference was organized in plenary sessions of invited and contributed talks, supported by poster sessions, and presented the "state of the art" in Cherenkov light imaging techniques for applications in high energy physics, nuclear physics, and astroparticle physics, as well as novel ideas and future developments.

The list of topics included:

  • Cherenkov light imaging in current particle and nuclear physics experiments.
  • Cherenkov light imaging in neutrino and astroparticle physics experiments.
  • Pattern recognition and data analysis.
  • R&D on Cherenkov light imaging systems for future experiments.
  • Photo sensor techniques for Cherenkov imaging counters.
  • Technological aspects and applications of Cherenkov light detectors.
