Environmental Dependence of the Performance of Resistive Plate Chambers
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Ed May +6
This paper reports on the performance of Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) as function of the gas flow rate through the chambers and of environmental conditions, such as atmospheric…
Hadron Showers in a Digital Hadron Calorimeter
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Georgios Mavromanolakis +6
A small prototype of a finely granulated digital hadron calorimeter with Resistive Plate Chambers as active elements was exposed to positive pions of 1 >. 16 GeV energy from the Fe…
Measurement of Positron Showers with a Digital Hadron Calorimeter
Burak Bilki, John Butler, Ed May +6
A small prototype of a finely granulated digital hadron calorimeter with Resistive Plate Chambers as active elements was exposed to positrons of 1 . 16 GeV energy from the Fermilab…
Measurement of the Rate Capability of Resistive Plate Chambers
B. Bilki, J. Butler, E. May +6
This paper reports on detailed measurements of the performance of Resistive Plate Chambers in a proton beam with variable intensity. Short term effects, such as dead time, are stud…
