Background sensitivity studies for GEM based detectors using a Geant4 simulation
Triple-GEM detectors were selected by the CMS Collaboration for instrumenting the high η region of the muon system. This region is characterized by a huge radiation background, mainly composed by neutrons and photons. In this context, a discharge probability test was performed in 2017 at the CHARM f...
