. in s - de t ] 1 8 Ju l 2 00 8 Simple Front End Electronics for Multigap Resistive Plate Chambers
A simple circuit for the presentation of the signals from Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPCs) to standard existing digitization electronics is described. The circuit is based on “off-the-shelf” discrete components. An optimization of the values of specific components is required to match the aspects of the MRPCs for the given application. This simple circuit is an attractive option for t...
متن کاملPerformance of a resistive plate chamber equipped with a new prototype of amplified front-end electronics
ALICE is the LHC experiment dedicated to the study of heavy-ion collisions. At forward rapidity a muon spectrometer detects muons from low mass mesons, quarkonia, open heavy-flavor hadrons as well as weak bosons. A muon selection based on transverse momentum is made by a trigger system composed of 72 resistive plate chambers (RPCs). For the LHC Run 1 and the ongoing Run 2 the RPCs have been equ...
متن کاملResistive Plate Chambers in ATLAS
The ATLAS first level muon trigger is based, in the rapidity region ( v ( 5 1.05, on fast and finely segmented gaseous detectors, Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) . A prototype of a small scale RPC trigger tower has been assembled and tested. We present results on efficiency, time resolution, cluster size and collected charge. The detectors, filled with a non-flammable and environment-safe gas m...
متن کاملA single Time-of-Flight tray based on multigap resistive plate chambers for the STAR experiment at RHIC
The STAR experiment at RHIC plans to implement a 60 m Time-of-Flight (TOF) system. The Multigap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC) is a suitable candidate for the STAR TOF system due to its time resolution of order of 60 ps with efficiencies in excess of 97%. We obtained this result with modules composed of 6 gas gaps of 220 mm and pad area of 20 cm: In this paper, we report on the performance of t...
متن کاملInduced signals in resistive plate chambers
We derive theorems for induced signals on electrodes embedded in a medium with a position and frequencydependent permittivity eð~x; sÞ and conductivity sð~x; sÞ that are connected with arbitrary discrete elements. The problem is treated using the quasi-static approximation of Maxwell’s equations for weakly conducting media. The induced signals can be derived by time-dependent weighting fields a...
