The Multigap RPC: The Time-of-Flight Detector for the ALICE experiment

The selected device for the ALICE Time-of-Flight is the Multigap Resistive Plate Chamber. This detector, consisting of a stack of glass plates, has a time resolution between 60 and 80 ps. We discuss the principle of operation of this detector and present the latest results from the ongoing R&D p...
