The first CMS MB2 station, with one RPC and one DT module, has been tested with a ration beam under a high intensity photon flux at the CERN Gamma Irradiation Facility during the Autumn 2001 test. Results on efficiency, rate capability, cluster size and spatial resolution, for the RPC detector, are reported here. Studies with a small percentage of SF6 in the gas mixture, in order to decrease the noise rate, have also been carried out. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Abstract
The first CMS MB2 station, with one RPC and one DT module, has been tested with a ration beam under a high intensity photon flux at the CERN Gamma Irradiation Facility during the Autumn 2001 test. Results on efficiency, rate capability, cluster size and spatial resolution, for the RPC detector, are reported here. Studies with a small percentage of SF6 in the gas mixture, in order to decrease the noise rate, have also been carried out. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.File in questo prodotto:
