“…Therefore, an occupancy smaller than 5% requires very high granularity. Promising results in terms of performance of standard single ended strip structure RPC or differential architecture strip RPC based on low resistivity glass electrodes of Pestov type were obtained already a few years ago [13,14]. In order to increase the granularity, the longitudinal strip architecture was replaced by a transverse strip architecture, the performance in terms of efficiency and time resolution being presented at the last RPC2010 Workshop [15].…”

Based on single ended strip structure, symmetric, multi gap RPC, developed by us more than a decade ago, the time-of-flight barrel of FOPI experiment at GSI-Darmstadt was designed, constructed and is currently in operation. Motivated by the requirements of the next generation experiments in terms of very good time resolution in high counting rate and multiplicity environment, a new architecture of differential, strip structure, symmetric, multi gap timing RPC was developed. The results on efficiency, two dimensions position resolution, time resolution and performance in high counting rate environment using low resistivity glass electrodes are reported.
