Owing to its high efficiency, low cost and low sensitivity to environmental gamma-rays, resistive plate chamber (RPC) is a good candidate for large area underground cosmic-ray detectors. We report in this paper such a design for the Daya Bay reactor antineutrino experiment based on calculations and
We investigated the radiation hardness of GaAs pad detectors irradiated by fast neutrons. The main goal was to determine the degradation of the charge collection efficiency (CCE) of the irradiated detectors and to measure the charge transport properties in terms of the mt-product. Several GaAs pad d
