Tesis de maestría Characterization of multigap resistive plate chambers(Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla, 2023-12) Ramos Regino, Liliana Michelle; URIBE ESTRADA, CECILIA; 72547"Future high energy physics experiments will require detectors with higher rate capabilities as well as better timing precision, with this in mind, we analyzed data from three Multi Gap Resistive Plate Chambers (MRPCs). The performance studies were done using a cosmic telescope, composed of 2 MRPCs built at CERN and two PMTs, that were installed in BUAP, as well as a MRPC already built at BUAP, to compare results between the performance of the two MRPCs built at CERN and the one from ALICE-BUAP. The MRPCs from CERN have six gaps made with glass plates and the acquisition geometry is through 24 strips and a honeycomb, while the MRPC from ALICE-BUAP, also made of glass, has two gaps and six pads that help us acquire data. MRPCs (developed in 1996) are gaseous detectors with resistive electrodes and multiple gaps as their name says, a positively charged anode and a negatively charged cathode, in this case, made of glass, separated by a gas volume. MRPCs are known to have a better timing compared to RPCs (developed in 1981) of just one gap".
