Contribution
It provides new insights into the aging behavior of BESIII-type RPCs and their variants, including microscopic surface analysis, which had not been documented before.
Findings
Identification of new aging phenomena in BESIII-type RPCs
Microscopic surface characterization of BESIII-type Bakelite electrodes
Comparison of aging performance between BESIII-type and Italian-type RPCs
Abstract
Preliminary test results on microscope investigation and BESIII-type RPC aging performance have revealed interesting aging phenomena that had not been seen before in Linseed oil coated Italian-type RPC. We report here on the aging performance of BESIII-type and its variant RPC, and on microscopic surface characterization of BESIII-type Bakelite electrodes.
