摘要：A new kind of low resistivity glass has been developed. Its volume resistivity is on the order of 1010 Ωcm and MRPCs assembled with it show a very promising rate capability (>25 kHz/cm2). This new detector has a very important range of application in high energy physics experiments such as FAIR-CBM, LHC-ATLAS or Jlab-SOLID, to mention some. In this paper we report new results related to its long-term behavior (ageing). The module has been irradiated by X-rays at a mips-equivalent flux of 15kHz/cm2, for 300 hours and for a released charge totaling 0.22C. No noticeable degradation could be observed. Compared to common glass MRPCs, the newly developed high rate counter responds faster to sudden irradiation.
