Ceramics high rate timing RPC
Ceramics high rate timing RPC
Naumann, L.; Stach, D.; Kotte, R.; Wüstenfeld, J.
A resistive plate counter for timing purposes in the high rate environment of the Compressed Baryonic Matter Experiment has been developed at the Forschungszentrum Dresden-Rossendorf. The detector electrodes are made of a ceramics composite, whose volume resitivity can be tuned in the production process over five orders of magnitude. The detector prototype has been tested with single electrons of 32MeV. It shows an all-time high rate capability for electron fluxes up to 5·10 5s−1cm−2.
