Strip readout RPC based on low resistivity glass electrodes

We present the prototype of a Resistive Plate Counter equipped with electrodes made from Pestov Glass (similar to 10(10)Omega cm). It is aimed as solution for TOF subdetector of CBM experiment at the future FAIR facility in Darmstadt. Details of the design and the construction are introduced. Result...

Descripción
Sumario:We present the prototype of a Resistive Plate Counter equipped with electrodes made from Pestov Glass (similar to 10(10)Omega cm). It is aimed as solution for TOF subdetector of CBM experiment at the future FAIR facility in Darmstadt. Details of the design and the construction are introduced. Results of tests with radioactive sources and of in-beam investigations on time resolution and counting rate capability are discussed.
