We describe the trigger system for the Forward-Backward muon spectrometer of L3 detector. The trigger uses double gap Resistive Plate Counters (RPC) covering an area of 300 m(2). This is the first large scale application of this kind of detectors in high energy physics. The main features of these detectors, the trigger architecture and preliminary results are reported.

Abstract
We describe the trigger system for the Forward-Backward muon spectrometer of L3 detector. The trigger uses double gap Resistive Plate Counters (RPC) covering an area of 300 m(2). This is the first large scale application of this kind of detectors in high energy physics. The main features of these detectors, the trigger architecture and preliminary results are reported.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
