Description
Muon Systems at LHC experiments have performed extremely well with outstanding results during the Run1 phase. They are all based on gaseous detector technology: mainly wire/drift chamber and resistive parallel plate device.
For the harsher background conditions foreseen at higher luminosity, after LS2 and in particular at HL-LHC, muon detectors, especially in the high eta regions of the experiments, are expected to be upgraded with novel detector technologies.
A general overview of the Micro-Pattern Gas Detectors and the improved versions of wire chamber and RPC devices proposed for the Muon systems upgrades will be discussed.
