Abstract
A resistive plate chamber operated at low pas amplification has been e xposed to photon and neutron sources to study the detection efficiency and the time response in conditions dose to those expected in experim ents at the Large Hadron Collider. Results on the sensitivity to photo ns and neutrons of energy around 1 MeV are presented.
