In-beam performance of a Resistive Plate Chamber operated with eco-friendly gas mixtures
L. Quaglia, M. Abbrescia, G. Aielli +54
ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) studies the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP): a deconfined state of matter obtained in ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. One of the probes fo…
Exploring Eco-Friendly Gas Mixtures for Resistive Plate Chambers: A Comprehensive Study on Performance and Aging
The RPC ECOGas@GIF++ collaboration, :, L. Quaglia +57
Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) are gaseous detectors widely used in high energy physics experiments, operating with a gas mixture primarily containing Tetrafluoroethane (CH$…
Preliminary results on the long term operation of RPCs with eco-friendly gas mixtures under irradiation at the CERN Gamma Irradiation Facility
L. Quaglia, D. Ramos, M. Abbrescia +55
Since 2019 a collaboration between researchers from various institutes and experiments (i.e. ATLAS, CMS, ALICE, LHCb/SHiP and the CERN EP-DT group), has been operating several RPCs…
Searching for an eco-friendly gas mixture for the ALICE Resistive Plate Chambers
Luca Quaglia, R. Cardarelli, B. Liberti +47
The ALICE RPCs are operated with a mixture of 89.7% , 10% i- and 0.3% . and are fluorinated greenhouse gases with a…
