Simulation of Pickup Signal in a Resistive Plate Chamber
نویسنده
چکیده
The signal induced by an electron on a pickup strip has been calculated in a RPC used in INO calorimeter [1] following Ramo’s theorem [2]. An accurate estimation of weighting field has been obtained using a nearly exact Boundary Element Method (neBEM) solver [3] while the electron velocity from the real field values. The calculation has shown a growth and subsequent fall of pickup signal with duration about 90ps.

متن کاملObservation of light from resistive plate chambers
Electrically induced signals and light emissions from Restrictive Plate Chamber (RPC) are simultaneously measured using a glass RPC with transparent high-voltage planes, operating in the streamer mode. With one exception, good correspondence is seen in between the electrical and optical signals in every aspect: signal shapes, pulse heights, timing and afterpulses. The one exception is a possibl...
متن کاملCharacteristics of a double gap resistive plate chamber for the endcap region of CMS/LHC: data vs. simulation in avalanche mode
We present the detailed analysis of the time and charge signals of a prototype double gap resistive plate chamber for the endcap region of the compact muon solenoid detector at CERN LHC. We demonstrate that the operating highvoltage plateau can be extended at least up to 400V with the present design. The simple avalanche multiplication model can reproduce the experimental charge spectra reasona...
متن کاملDevelopment of a straw tube chamber with pickup-pad readout
We have developed a straw tube chamber with pickup-pad readout. The mechanism for signal pickup, the size of the pickup signal, and the distribution of signals among neighboring pads are discussed. We have tested a prototype chamber in a beam test at Brookhaven National Laboratory and have measured chamber e$ciencies in excess of 99%. ( 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملElectric field and currents in resistive plate chambers
A method of three-dimensional electric fields calculation that takes into account the presence of surface currents has been realized. Different versions of the resistive plate chamber (RPC) design were simulated. Calculations of electric fields, currents and comparison with the measured values of currents were made. Recommendations relative to an optimal graphite coating in the basic RPC scheme...
