A spark-resistant bulk-micromegas chamber for high-rate applications

We report on the design and performance of a spark-resistant bulk-micromegas chamber. The principle of this design lends itself to the construction of large-area muon chambers for the upgrade of the detectors at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN for luminosities in excess of 10 34 cm −2 s −1 or othe...
