Abstract
Multi-gap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC), which has excellent performance and relatively low cost per channel, is a good candidate for Time-of-Flight (TOF) system in modern high energy physics experiments. A new kind of MRPC, Long-strip MRPC (LMRPC) with 50 cm × 2.5 cm strips, was tested at GSI-FOPI with secondary beam. The resets show that this LMRPC prototype can achieve 60 to 70 ps σ time resolution and greater than 97% detecting efficiency. The cross talk between readout strips is less than 2%. The measured spatial resolution along the strips is about 0.36 cm σ.
