Thin Glass MRPC Rate Capability at Moderate Warming
Protvino, 2012. – p. 11, figs. 7, refs.: 15.


In this study we demonstrate that a multigap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) made of commercial float glass is capable to sustain high rate at moderate warming. The time resolution of the chamber and its efficiency to detect charged particles were measured in a low intensity hadron beam under high flux irradiation by means of radioactive sources. The time resolution of better than 80 ps was reached at the rate of 20 kHz/cm2 and at temperature of 450C.
