Prototype with the basic architecture for the CBM-TOF inner wall tested in close to real conditions

Two dimensional position sensitive timing MGMSRPC prototypes were developed for the low polar angles of the CBM - TOF wall. Four MGMSRPC counters were arranged in a staggered geometrical configuration along the z direction, with overlap along and across the strips, in order to define a basic architecture for the inner zone of the CBM-TOF wall. This configuration was tested with mixed electron-pion beam at CERN-PS and with reaction products resulted from the heavy ion induced reactions at SIS18 - GSI Darmstadt and SPS - CERN. The performance of the basic architecture in conditions close to the ones expected for their operation in the inner zone o the CBM - TOF wall at SIS100/FAIR will be presented.
