Scientific paper
The Compact Muon Solenoid experiment (CMS) aims to detect and study any new physics signal to be produced by proton-proton collisions in the Large Hadron Collider, at CERN. It is conceived as a full solid-angle coverage apparatus with a solenoidal magnet reaching a field up to 4 T. Tracking system and calorimeters are inside the magnet while outside there is a muon system, consisting of three different gaseous detectors. The muon system identifies and triggers on muons and measures transverse momentum, charge and spatial coordinates. One of the chambers inside the muon system are the Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) whose time resolution (~ns) makes them suitable for muon triggering purposes. During the end of 2008 and since the summer 2009 the CM apparatus has been extensively tested with cosmic muons with the magnetic field on. Results concerning performance of the RPC system in readout and trigger are hereby reported.
