论文摘要
电阻板室探测器在当前的高能物理实验中很大程度上使用,通常在雪崩模式下以大量的四氟乙烷(C2H2F4)进行操作,四氟甲烷(C2H2F4)最近由于其高全球变暖潜力(GWP)而被欧盟最近禁止的气体。鉴于未来的HEP应用程序,正在进行一项激烈的研发活动,以改善RPC技术。在过去的几年中,RPC ECOGA@GIF ++合作一直在爱丽丝,地图集,CMS,LHCB/Ship和EP-DT社区之间进行了共同的努力,以调查当前和未来的RPC一代的表现,并具有环保气体混合物。具有不同布局和电子设备的探测器已使用生态气体混合物运行,在Cern Gamma辐照设施(GIF ++)中,有没有辐射。本文讨论了这些绩效研究的结果以及对老化测试活动的计划。
Resistive Plate Chamber detectors are largely used in current High Energy Physics experiments, typically operated in avalanche mode with large fractions of Tetrafluoroethane (C2H2F4), a gas recently banned by the European Union due to its high Global Warming Potential (GWP). An intense R&D activity is ongoing to improve RPC technology in view of future HEP applications. In the last few years the RPC EcoGas@GIF++ Collaboration has been putting in place a joint effort between the ALICE, ATLAS, CMS, LHCb/SHiP and EP-DT Communities to investigate the performance of present and future RPC generations with eco-friendly gas mixtures. Detectors with different layout and electronics have been operated with ecological gas mixtures, with and without irradiation at the CERN Gamma Irradiation Facility (GIF++). Results of these performance studies together with plans for an aging test campaign are discussed in this article.
