Resistive Plate Chambers operated in streamer mode have been chosen as trigger detectors for the forward dimuon spectrometer of the ALICE experiment. During tests performed at CERN PS, small size prototypes with low-resistivity bakelite electrodes and with a strongly quenched gas mixture have shown

The ALICE experiment is the LHC detector mainly dedicated to the study of the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) in Pb-Pb collisions. The detector has started the data taking less than one year ago, delivering immediately relevant results. An overview of the first physics results obtained in the first six mon
