“…Literature confirms that Resistive Plate Chambers (RPCs) [1] have been applied with great success in many High Energy and Nuclear Physics experiments over the last two decades. In Cosmic Ray Physics, RPCs have been already used in the COVER-PLASTEX (An Experiment to Analyze the Space-Time Structure of EAS Fronts) [2] and ARGO/YBJ (Astrophysical Radiation with Ground-based Observatory at YangBaJing) [3] experiments. They have started to be applied also in the radiography of vulcanos using cosmic ray muons [4,5].…”

“…The RPCs in CBM, therefore, should be capable of handling these high rates for muon detection with high efficiency (∼ 90 %). Cosmic ray experiments like Cover Plastex [9] in UK, Pierre Auger Cosmic Ray Observatory [10] in Argentina, neutrino physics experiments like Daya Bay Reactor in China [11] and INO-ICAL in India [12], high energy physics experiments like CMS, ALICE, ATLAS at LHC [13], BaBar at PEPII [14] and BELLE at KEKB [15] are using or planning to use RPCs for muon detection at various particle rates. These detectors are preferred for muon detection due to several reasons, (e) the possibility to build them in large areas and in different shapes [8].…”
