Description
The MRPC (multi resistive plate chamber) strip is the basic element of the ALICE time-of-flight detector. A test of a large sample of MRPC-strip prototypes corresponding to 1.2% of the full detector was carried out during the autumn of 2002 at the CERN proton syncroton facility. This paper summarizes the main results obtained in terms of uniformity of response for all the tested channels
