The time resolution of the MRPC module used is tested to be -80 ps, and the position resolution along the strip is -5 mm, while the position resolution perpendicular to the strip is -12.7 ram. The platform constructed by four MRPC modules can be used for tracking cosmic rays with a spatial resolution of -6.3 mm, and provide a reference time -40 ps.展开更多
