Cms Barrel Resistive Plate Chambers- Tests and Results
ثبت نشده
چکیده
CMS experiment will use Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) as dedicated muon trigger detectors. The first 24 RPCs for the barrel muon system of the CMS experiment have been assembled and tested. A brief description of the cosmic muon telescope used for the tests is given. The preliminary results for the chamber performance are presented.

Cosmic ray tests of double-gap resistive plate chambers for the CMS experiment
The CMS Barrel resistive plate chambers quality tests are performed at three different sites (Bari, Pavia and Sofia), where equivalent software and hardware tools are used. Data from the first 210 detectors are available for a comprehensive analysis. The paper describes the general experimental set-up, the test procedure and the cosmic muon test results. The muon trajectory reconstruction algor...
متن کاملBeam Test Results on Resistive Plate Chambers for the CMS Experiment
Resistive Plate Chambers were tested in a muon and a pion beam to study the performances at different running conditions. Results on a first chamber built without the linseed oil treatment of the bakelite surfaces are presented together with an evaluation of the local effects due the spacers. These results are extrapolated to the conditions expected at LHC.
متن کاملResistive plate chambers in running and future experiments
This document surveys the RPC-based detection systems of running and future collider experiments focusing on the implications of the choice of some basic detector features: number of gaps, electrode material and operating mode. The muon identification systems of the B-factory experiments BaBar and Belle is described and the RPC performance since the first operation of the detectors is briefly r...
متن کاملResistive Plate Chambers in avalanche mode: a comparison between model predictions and experimental results1
In this paper a model simulating the main aspects of avalanche growth and signal development in Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) is presented. The model has been used to compute the performances, in particular, charge distribution and efficiency of singledoubleand multi-gap RPCs, and to compare them with the available experimental results. This model could be used to optimize the characteristics...
متن کاملon CMS information server CMS NOTE 1997 / 004 CMS Note The Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment
Some properties of a 90% C2H2F4 gas mixture, used to operate resistive plate chambers in avalanche mode, are determined by comparing the experimental results with the prediction of simple analytical calculations. The fast charge distribution of the signal induced on pick-up electrodes is reproduced by means of a Monte Carlo simulation of the avalanche development. In addition predictions for a ...
