                      upgraded optical part of the time-of-flight subdetector
                      prototype for the AFP (ATLAS Forward Proton) detector
                      obtained during the test campaign in a synchrotron test-beam
                      facility with 5 GeV electrons at the DESY laboratory
                      (Hamburg, Germany) in June 2019. The detection of the
                      particle arrival time is based on generation of Cherenkov
                      light in an L-shaped fused silica bar. In the previous
                      version of the ToF, all bars were made of two pieces
                      (radiator and light guide) glued together with a dedicated
                      glue (Epotek 305). This solution suffers from additional
                      radiation damage of glue. We adopted a new technique of bar
                      production without the need of glue. The new bars have a
                      higher optical throughput by a factor of 1.6, reduced
                      fragility, and better geometrical precision.},
