The recently approved HL-LHC project and the future colliders proposals present a challenging experimental scenario, dominated by high pileup, radiation background and a bunch crossing time possibly shorter than 5 ns. This holds as well for muon systems, where RPCs can play a fundamental role in the design of the future experiments. The RPCs, thanks to their high space-time granularity, allows...
High resolution timing for muon detectors are potentially very important for experiments at future colliders. The brief interbunching time and the very high luminosity impose for detectors high perfomances in terms of intrinsic time and spatial resolution. In this work it is shown a comparison of different technologies for muon spectrometer focusing on peculiar performances of a new generation of RPCs.
The effort to redesign the RPCs for the future experiments muon systems has started shortly after the beginning of the LHC experiments and recently centered the goal of producing a 100 x 50 cm2 size prototype. This prototype inherits from the present ATLAS muon trigger chambers the basic design and simple construction features and bi-dimensional strip readout, but is equipped with a newly...
Searches for new physics with accelerators are being performed at the LHC, looking for high massive particles coupled to matter with ordinary strength. A new experimental facility meant to search for very weakly coupled particles in the few GeV mass domain has been recently proposed at CERN. The existence of such particles, foreseen in different theoretical models beyond the Standard Model, is...
