Description

In hadron hall at J-PARC, we plan to measure the cross sections for exclusive Drell-Yan reaction ($\pi^-p\rightarrow\mu^+\mu^-n$) for determining the generalized parton distribution function. We are developing a TOF-tracker RPC to identify muons in this reaction. To remove background muons from decays in flight of kaons and pions, precise time resolution (~100 ps) and precise position resolution (~1 mm) are required. We have developed a prototype TOF-tracker RPC with an area of 500 mm $\times$ 1000 mm and a strip pitch of 5 mm. We will report the performance of the prototype TOF-tracker RPC.
