초록

"In preparation for the Phase-II upgrade for the High-Luminosity LHC program, 72 improved Resistive Plate Chambers (iRPC) will be installed in the third and fourth endcap disks of the Compact Muon Solenoid detector during the annual technical stop 2024. This new generation of RPC detectors will operate in a low-angle momentum (extending RPC coverage from pseudorapidity |η| = 1.9 to 2.4), in a high radiation environment, and will bring a better space and time resolution for this challenging region. To ensure proper performance, iRPC chambers undergo a series of quality control (QC) tests at each stage of the assembly chain. These tests include QC1 for the basic components, QC2 for chamber elements such as gaps and cooling, QC3 for evaluating the full chamber performance after production, which includes noise, efficiency, current, lastly QC4 for the final validation of the chambers. In this work we present the different QC stages and discuss test results for the newly built iRPCs at the assembly sites. © 2025
