Abstract: (Springer)
Resistive Plate Chamber (RPC) is a type of gaseous detector having excellent time and position resolutions. VECC is involved in the R&D of indigenously developed bakelite RPCs. The largest size of bakelite RPC developed in India is 100cm×100cm100\,{\text {cm}} \times 100\,{\text {cm}} . We present here the test results of a bakelite sample along with the cosmic ray test results of a bakelite RPC ( 30cm×30cm×0.2cm30\,{\text {cm}} \times 30\,{\text {cm}} \times 0.2\,{\text {cm}} ) fabricated at VECC. The steps taken towards the development of a large size ( 240cm×120cm×0.2cm240\,{\text {cm}} \times 120\,{\text {cm}} \times 0.2\,{\text {cm}} ) bakelite RPC have also been discussed.
