Lect.1: Introduction to Gaseous Detectors

• Giulio Aielli (INFN e Universita Roma Tor Vergata (IT))

Room: Vadi H Campus / Room 108 We will introduce the history, the basic working principles, the physics, and the types of gaseous detectors, with a comparative analysis on their performance and applications.

Lect.2: Introduction to the Resistive Plate Chamber and Related Detectors

• Giulio Aielli (INFN e Universita Roma Tor Vergata (IT))

Room: Vadi H Campus / Room 108 The Resistive Plate Chamber is a very successful detector technology, spread in any type of particle physics experiment. We will deepen the physics principles of RPCs, addressing the features and the limits, and we will see their past, present and future applications. At the end two new technologies, stemming from the RPC concept, promising for a major breakthrough in achieving a new order of magnitude of performance.
