Abstract :
We model the transient behaviour of an RPC exposed to intense irradiation by using as input the dielectric response function of the Resistive Plates measured experimentally. This work generalizes previous models to the (most common) case where the RPC response cannot be seen as a simple parallel RC circuit. Actually, the standard simplifying assumption that the corresponding RC constant can be estimated from the permittivity ε measured at high frequencies ( ε ∞ ) clearly fails at describing the observed RPC transients, while if using the measured dielectric response function a remarkable good agreement is obtained.
