Study of long-term performance of CMS RPC under irradiation at the CERN GIF
Several small single gap Resistive Plate Chambers and two RB1 CMS final stations have been exposed during the last year at the CERN Gamma Irradiation Facility to study possible long-term ageing effects. Up to now, an integrated charge of about 0:05C=ðcm gapÞ and 0.025 C/(cm gap) has been accumulated for the small RPCs and the large RB1 stations, respectively. Current, rate, fast charge and effi...
متن کاملResults of tests of Inverted Double Gap RPC at the CERN GIF facility
A medium size prototype of Inverted Double Gap RPC made of low resistivity bakelite plates was tested in the GIF facility at the CERN SPS. The chamber efficiency as a function of the source intensity and its timing properties were studied and found to be excellent. This work was partially financed by Polish Committee for Scientific Research under grants KBN 115/E-343/SPUB/P03/119/96 and KBN 115...
متن کاملInstrument intercomparison in the high-energy mixed field at the CERN-EU reference field (CERF) facility.
This paper discusses an intercomparison campaign performed in the mixed radiation field at the CERN-EU (CERF) reference field facility. Various instruments were employed: conventional and extended-range rem counters including a novel instrument called LUPIN, a bubble detector using an active counting system (ABC 1260) and two tissue-equivalent proportional counters (TEPCs). The results show tha...
متن کاملOperation of the ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker under very high irradiation at the CERN LHC
The ATLAS Transition Radiation Tracker (TRT) performance depends critically on the choice of the active gas and on its properties. The most important operational aspects, which have led to the final choice of the active gas for the operation of the TRT at the LHC design luminosity, are presented. The TRT performance expected at these conditions is reviewed, including pile-up effects at high lum...
متن کاملCryogenic design of the new high field magnet test facility at CERN
In the framework of the R&D program related to the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) upgrades, a new High Field Magnet (HFM) vertical test bench is required. This facility located in the SM18 cryogenic test hall shall allow testing of up to 15 tons superconducting magnets with energy up to 10 MJ in a temperature range between 1.9 K and 4.5 K. The article describes the cryogenic architecture to be ins...
