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…
Preliminary results of Resistive Plate Chambers operated with eco-friendly gas mixtures for application in the CMS experiment
M. Abbrescia, P. Van Auwegem, L. Benussi +11
The operations of Resistive Plate Chambers in LHC experiments require Fluorine based (F-based) gases for optimal performance. Recent European regulations demand the use of environm…
Eco-friendly gas mixtures for Resistive Plate Chambers based on Tetrafluoropropene and Helium
M. Abbrescia, L. Benussi, S. Bianco +8
Due to the recent restrictions deriving from the application of the Kyoto protocol, the main components of the gas mixtures presently used in the Resistive Plate Chambers systems o…
Characterization of the GEM foil materials
