| Abstract: | The resistivity of conventional glass is quite high and is unacceptable in a high rate environment.Low resistive glass-electrodes could be a solution for this problem. The present study reports the e~+/e~- simulation results of an RPC detector made from low resistive phosphate glass electrodes. The detailed geometrical configuration of the content materials which are the essential components of the glass of the RPC detector have been created with the GEANT4 simulation code.Two different types of particle sources,i.e.for e~+/e~-,have been located on the detectors surface to evaluate the performance of the phosphate glass RPC.Both of the particles have been simulated as a function of their respective energies in the range of 0.1 MeV -1.0 GeV.The present simulation work has shown that the resistive electrode plays an important role for the particle production in the RPC configuration. |
