Surface Commissioning and Performance of the sMDT Muon Chambers for the ATLAS HL-LHC Upgrade
Jiajin Ge, Elena Voevodina, Hubert Kroha +21
To improve the first-level muon trigger efficiency at the HL-LHC, the Monitored Drift Tube (MDT) chambers in the inner small sectors of the ATLAS Barrel Muon Spectrometer will be r…
Long-term operation of the screen-printed graphite-based resistive coatings on the HPL electrode for the Resistive Plate Chamber
Davide Costa, Francesco Fallavollita, Hubert Kroha +6
The reliability of large-area Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) operated under High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) conditions is governed by the long-term stability and ra…
Resistive Plate Chamber Detector Construction and Certification: State-of-the-Art Facilities at the Max Planck Institute for Physics, in Partnership with Industrial Partners
Davide Costa, Francesco Fallavollita, Hubert Kroha +6
Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) featuring 1 mm gas volumes combined with high-pressure phenolic laminate (HPL) electrodes provide excellent timing resolution down to a few hundred…
New Facilities for the Production of 1 mm gap Resistive Plate Chambers for the Upgrade of the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer
F. Fallavollita, O. Kortner, H. Kroha +5
The ATLAS Muon Spectrometer is undergoing a major upgrade for the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC), including the addition of three new thin-gap Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) layers in…
