The selected device for the ALICE Time-of-Flight array is the Multigap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC). We have tested this device at the Gamma Irradiation Facility at CERN to evaluate the rate dependence. We find that the rate capability of the MRPC easily exceeds the 50 Hz/cm 2 maximum expected rate at the ALICE experiment. In addition, we have measured the power dissipated for an equivalent flux of 1.6 kHz/cm 2 of through-going muons to be 650 mW/m 2 . |
