12. Data Acquisition using MicroTCA in the Mu2e Experiment

Matthew Jones (Purdue University (US))

Talk

The Mu2e experiment, currently under construction at Fermilab, will use a pulsed beam structure to significantly improve limits on the rates of charged lepton flavor violating muon decay processes. The time structure of the pulsed beam is measured by the extinction monitor, comprised of scintillation counters and a silicon pixel detector telescope, which are read out using a data acquisition...

Talk

GSI is a particle physics research institute located in Darmstadt, Germany. At the same location, a new accelerator facility called FAIR (Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research) is currently under construction.
We are using MicroTCA systems for measuring beam parameters like position, intensity and profile, for accurate timing control, for measuring voltages and for control...

9. Applications of Digital Signal Processing for Energy Dispersive X-Rays Detectors

Sarmad Adeel (FS-PETRA-D (FS-PET-D Fachgruppe P24 (Chem.Cryst.)))

Talk

In todays advanced and digital world traditional analog signal acquisition and processing are gradually shifting to digital domain to meet the needs of the hour. In the field of energy dispersive x-rays detectors traditional analog signal processing involves a pre-amplifier to amplify the signal, a shaping amplifier to detect the energy of the incident photon, and a multichannel analyzer (MCA)...

55. MTCA-based Camera Systems at W7-X

Axel Winter (Herr)

Talk

With the current upgrade to W7-X, an actively-cooled divertor will be installed. This necessitates a sophisticated protection system, to ensure that the internal components of the machine do not overheat. The key DAQ components are high-fidelity infrared and optical cameras. This system alone will consist of more than two dozen cameras with multiple GBit/s data rates each and the requirement...
