摘要：

The Multigap Resistive Plate Chamber (MRPC) is unique in its power of high precision time measurements; this is why it has been used for time-of-flight purposes at various experiments. We report on tests of a new configuration consisting of 24 gaps where a time resolution of 20 ps has been obtained. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
