Eco-friendly Resistive Plate Chambers for detectors in future HEP applications
Luca Quaglia
Resistive Plate Chamber detectors are largely used in current High Energy Physics experiments, typically operated in avalanche mode with large fractions of Tetrafluoroethane (C2H2F…
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…
The ALICE Experiment Upgrades
A. Ferretti
The ALICE experiment profited of the Long Shutdown during 2019-2021 in order to expand its physics capabilities and fully profit from the increased LHC luminosity in Run 3. The Inn…
Studies on tetrafluoropropene-CO2 based gas mixtures for the Resistive Plate Chambers of the ALICE Muon IDentifier
Alessandro Ferretti
Due to their simplicity and comparatively low cost Resistive Plate Chambers are gaseous detectors widely used in high-energy and cosmic rays physics when large detection areas are…
School reopening should be guided by solid evidence and mitigation measures against Covid-19
R. Battiston, F. Carinci, A. Ferretti +12
The debate on the role of school closures as a mitigation strategy against the spread of Covid-19 is gaining relevance due to emerging variants in Europe. According to WHO, decisio…
Electron Collision Cross Sections in Tetrafluoropropene HFO1234ze(E) for Gas Mixtures in Resistive Plate Chambers
Antonio Bianchi, Alessandro Ferretti, Martino Gagliardi +1
In recent years, there has been growing interest in tetrafluoropropene HFO1234ze(E) (CHF) for Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs). This novel gas is considered a prom…
