Abstract | This paper presents the results from cosmic ray tests performed in the framework of R&D effort on the forward Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) for CMS. A double gap RPC of dimensions 50*50 cm/sup 2/ with 2 mm gas gaps was tested. We report data on the use of tetrafluorethane-based gas mixture, with additions of water vapour and SF/sub 6/. Efficiency, time resolution and cross-talk behaviour of the detector were investigated. (8 refs). |
