“…The avalanche to streamer ratio is defined by counting the number of entries in the avalanche (below the ADC threshold ( fig.2 b) and above the pedestal region) and dividing it by the number of streamer events above the avalanche threshold. Both efficiency and avalanche plateau are in good agreement with previous results [5].…”

“…Details can be found in [5,6] for a full explanation of the HV scan, dependence of efficiency on the HV, including the analysis and methodology. The dependence of the avalanche production on the environmental pressure P, temperature T and the applied HV can be summarised in an effective HV equation (2.1).…”

The CMS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) has a redundant muon system composed by three different detector technologies: Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC, in the endcap regions), Drift Tubes (DT, in the barrel region), and Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC, both in the barrel and endcap). The RPC are designed mainly as a trigger detector but they contribute also to the muon reconstruction. Thus the monitoring and the analysis of the system performance are necessary and essential for the final data quality. The main detector characteristics and the hit efficiency and cluster size are presented in the paper. The stability of the system in the conditions of high instantaneous luminosity and high number of pile up (PU) events are presented in a view of history monitoring and stable trend.

During 2013 and 2014 (Long Shutdown LS1) the CMS experiment is upgrading the forward region installing a fourth layer of RPC detectors in order to complete and improve the muon system performances in the view of the foreseen high luminosity run of LHC. The new two endcap disks consists of 144 double-gap RPC chambers assembled at three different production sites: CERN, Ghent (Belgium) and BARC (India). The chamber components as well as the final detectors are subjected to full series of tests established in parallel at all the production sites.All assembly and test operations have been engineered in order to standardize and improve detector production. In this work the complete chamber construction, quality control procedures and preliminary results will be detailed.
