XI Workshop on Resistive Plate Chambers and Related Detectors

RPC2012
5-10 February, 2012
Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati dell'INFN - Frascati (Rome) - Italy
published December 04, 2012

RPC2012 continues the tradition of regular scientific meetings, first started in 1991 at Lecce, with following editions in Roma, Pavia, Napoli, Bari, Coimbra, Clermont-Ferrand, Seoul, Mumbai, Darmstadt. The RPC detection technique has found large application in LHC detectors and in astroparticle physics experiments. The workshop focused on performance of large RPC systems, ageing and detector materials studies, electronics for RPCs, physics of basic processes in the gas, timing applications, new ideas for RPC detectors.
