Abstract
RICH detectors have become extraordinarily useful. Results include measurement of solar neutrino rates, evidence for neutrino oscillations, measurement of TeV gamma-rays from gravitational sources, properties of QCD, charm production and decay, and measurement of the CKM matrix elements Vcs, Vcb and Vub. A new value |Vub/Vcb|=0.087+/-0.012 is determined.
