Content
In the present work, the conversion of charge to time is studied for the characterisation of an RPC type gaseous detector. For this purpose, a 32-channel front-end ASIC, the WEEROC PETIROC2A board, was characterised and calibrated. Using an array of four detectors, two RPCs each with four panels and two plastic scintillators together with their respective PMTs, the latter being used as external triggers, the time of flight of the atmospheric muons was studied for the characterisation of the time response of the RPC type detectors, together with the measurement and calibration of the charge for each panel of the RPC detectors.
