The gas magnification of multi-gap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) is very difficult to be measured using the present instruments thoroughly in the world. The gas magnifications about ~10⁷ were obtained in the various operation-high-voltages of multi-gap resistive plate chamber (MRPC) by means of Monte-Carlo simulation and the presented experiment method.
