Time response functions and avalanche fluctuations in resistive plate chambers

The time response function of RPCs is derived. First, primary electron distributions in the RPC gas gap are discussed. Then the exact expression for the fluctuations of an avalanche starting with a fixed number of primary electrons is derived, using Legler's model of avalanche multiplication in...
