High Resolution Timing of MIPs with RPCs
Proposal of abstract for RPC99, Bari, Italy, 28-29 October 1999. RPCs made with glass and metal electrodes, forming accurately spaced gaps of a few hundred micrometres, have reached timing accuracies below 70 ps with efficiencies above 95<P>This type of detector, operating at atmospheric press...

| description | Proposal of abstract for RPC99, Bari, Italy, 28-29 October 1999. RPCs made with glass and metal electrodes, forming accurately spaced gaps of a few hundred micrometres, have reached timing accuracies below 70 ps with efficiencies above 95<P>This type of detector, operating at atmospheric pressure with non-flammable gases, seems well suited for large area TOF sytems, providing performances comparable to the existing scintillator-based TOF technology but with significantly lower price per channel.<P>In this work we describe the principles of operation and the performance of several chamber configurations. |
