The proposed ICAL detector [1] at India-based Neutrino Observatory will use Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) [2], stacked in 150 layers with iron plates sandwiched between them, as the tracking device for the muons created by the atmospheric neutrinos through their charged current interaction with the iron nuclei. Fast and efficient measurement from each RPC layer is an important factor for this...
The experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) operate in a large radiation background. With the increase of the luminosity of the LHC, estimates of the signal rate caused by neutral radiation should be assessed in order to infer the signal rate per unit area due to radiation.
A Geant4 simulation has been developed to estimate the sensitivity to gamma and neutrons of a double-layer RPC,...
