A Monte Carlo simulation-based optimization of a multilayer 10 B-RPC thermal neutron detector is performed targeting an increase in the counting rate capability while maintaining high (>50%) detection efficiency for thermal neutrons. The converter layer thicknesses of individual RPCs are optimized for several configurations of a detector containing a stack of 10 double gap RPCs. The results suggest that it is possible to reach a counting rate which is by a factor of eight higher in comparison to the rate of a detector with only one double-gap RPC. The effect of neutron scattering inside the detector contributing to the background is analyzed and design modifications of the first detector prototype, tested at neutron beam, are suggested.

With the increase of the LHC luminosity foreseen in the high luminosity version, some detectors currently used in CMS will not sustain high fluences and some need to be replaced. The new ones could provide time information and could reduce the data ambiguity due to the expected high pileup. RPC using low-resistivity materials are proposed to equip the very forward region of the CMS detector. In their single-gap version we will show that they can stand rates of few kHz/cm 2 . We also demonstrate that using multi-gap glass RPC, a time resolution of about 60 ps is achieved.

“…On the other hand, if the gas is to be replaced, ensuring low ageing for future experiments expecting to deal, over their operating life, with transported charges up to 1-3C/cm 2 [40,41] will require of a systematic and dedicated approach to the problem. Only then it will be possible to guarantee the previously observed low ageing levels present in both classic and multi-gap timing RPCs operated in avalanche mode.…”

“…Year 2012 is very important from the budgetary point of view, so there will be important news before the next RPC workshop is held. There are several ideas that will be worth following: the Chinese glassbased modules [41,45] and the evolution of the 'warm glass technique' [88,89] aimed at a ~x10 rate capability increase (Fig. 15), as well as the differential strip readout [90,91], whose technological relevance has still to be clarified.…”

ABSTRACT:Resistive gaseous detectors can be broadly defined as a sub-type of gaseous detectors that are operated in conditions where virtually no field lines exist that connect any two metallic electrodes sitting at different potential. For most practical purposes, this condition can be operationally realized as 'no gas gap being delimited by two metallic electrodes' [1]. Since early 70's, Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) are the most successful implementation of this idea, that leads to fully spark-protected gaseous detectors, with solid state -like reliability at working fields beyond 100kV/cm, yet enjoying the general characteristics of gaseous detectors in terms of flexibility, optimization and customization. We present a summary of the status of the field of resistive gaseous detectors as discussed in a dedicated closing session that took place during the XI Workshop for Resistive Plate Chambers and Related Detectors held in Frascati, and especially we review the perspectives and ambitions of the community towards the XII Workshop to be held in Beijing in year 2014.
