Performance studies of RPC detectors with new environmentally friendly gas mixtures in presence of LHC-like radiation background

Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) detectors are widely used at the CERN LHC experiments as muon trigger thanks to their excellent time resolution. They are operated with a Freon-based gas mixture containing C$_2$H$_2$F$_4$ and SF$_6$ , both greenhouse gases (GHG) with a very high global warming potentia...
