      Intelligent calorimeters are the first application that will illustrate what was discussed in the lectures given on September 16. They review i) the high processing capability included in the Front-End ASIC sitting on the detectors; ii) how the new technology allows confronting very difficult environmental conditions (non-accessibility, high radiation levels, extreme reliability requirements (high fault tolerance) etc.) ; iii) real time sophisticated filtering and triggering architectures already available or prepared on the front-end electronics and readout system on the detectors.
      The second application concerns the instruments in Astrophysics filled with Noble gases for Neutrino or Direct Matter searches.

      Smart tracking devices are another case both for HEP and also some spatial Experiments. Today lecture will address large area tracking devices built with Silicon strips or strixels (short strips) being developed for future High Energy Experiments at HL-LHC or future colliders. The Physics motivations and related performance leading to the need of high tech devices will be discussed together with the use of the high tech introduced Day 2, including sometime novel triggering capability.
      Laser Interferometric based instruments for Gravitational Waves experiments will be the other on detector application.

      The application of Intelligent Pixel-based devices is largely increasing both in research and applied life. They greatly benefit of the advances in the semi-conductor technology and in advanced CMOS technology as introduced on Day 2. Combining these technological advances on both the sensors and their associated FEE (as shown with some detailed examples), the pixels are becoming more and more intelligent devices with an increasing role for challenging applications in Astrophysics, Particle Physics as well as Novel Medical Imaging.

      Once the Front-End (on-detector) signal processing has been achieved, the filtered and compacted data must be sent to the next step of the full processing chain. This means in most of today life or fundamental research devices: high rate, high-speed data transmission very often in difficult environmental conditions. To perform the data transmission in those high performance conditions, the new Telecom technologies introduced in the previous day lectures are used or under active R&D.
      Some illustrative examples from Astrophysics and Particle Physics are reviewed.

      The session started yesterday with an example of the synergy between Particle Physics and Medical Physics will be pursued by two lectures applied to the Particle and Medical Physics cases.
      Developing fancy and challenging on-detector circuits with a high filtering and processing potential is quite appealing. Similarly developing high performance data transmission system, sophisticated overall signal processing architecture in extreme running conditions are as well requested and exciting topics to work on. But besides developing such devices based on very advanced technology tools sometimes, it is of the utmost importance to ensure that what is developed fulfils all the requests before building the final instrument. It means developing the proper test benches using the best characterization tools. It is an essential step in the R&D process where the engineering and physicists “worlds” work in close collaboration.

      SPECIAL POSTER SESSION SR4 2nd Floor

      SR4 2nd Floor

      Hamburg

      Jungiusstrasse 9, Hamburg and DESY

      The presentation of the Posters are presented in this session during which sandwiches will be served. A number of the students attending the School did prepare a Poster for the school on their current research work.

      The posters are currently included in this section with the photographs taken in the SR4 2nd Floor Room where they were posted during the full duration of the School and in the order of presentation. They have been largely seen and commented by the students themselves and the Lecturers during the whole school.

      They represent a certain amount of the large scope work covered by the students that attended the school. They include mainly young researchers from Astrophysics, Particle and Medical Physics and also some young engineers working as well in the related technological areas in collaboration with these research fields.

      The ,pdf version of the posters will be added in the next few days by their authors.
