โฆ Synopsis
New results about the simulation of Resistive Plate Chambers are reported; particular enphasys is put in the understanding of charge spectra in regions where deviations from the pure avalanche mode of operation can be present.

We performed a direct measurement of the avalanche charge with a 10 ร 10 cm 2 prototype resistive plate chambers with a 0.2 cm gas gap. We studied its behaviour with respect to the high voltage and its dependence on the presence of the SF 6 in the gas mixture (C 2 H 2 F 4 /i-C 4 H 10 /SF 6 in the ra
Simulation of a streamer initiation inside the gas gap of a trigger Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) has numerically been performed using a minimal streamer model including transport equations and Poisson equation for electrons, negative and positive ions. The simulation can well predict spatial and te
