- Holger Schlarb (MSK (Strahlkontrollen))
As the end of construction of the FAIR accelerator buildings is in sight the MicroTCA-based FAIR beam instrumentation data acquisition (DAQ) systems are ready for installation. Using COTS components or leveraging open hardware with in-house expertise in FPGA programming DAQ solutions for almost all major detector systems now exist in MicroTCA and are already in operation at the existing...
A lot of progress has been made in the ESS project since the last update in this workshop series. First substantial commissioning steps have been taken in the accelerator, including the most central MicroTCA-based systems. The talk gives a short overview of where the project stands at the moment, what are the experiences so far and what is to be expected in the next couple of years.
This presentation gives an update on the new modular astronomical detector controller (NGCII) developed at ESO. The controller will be used for all future instruments on the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT).
Final preparations for technical first light of a CMOS detector are ongoing and system level integration tests that go beyond the scope of single modules are performed. Important...
The Belgian Nuclear Research Centre (SCK•CEN) is developing an innovative multifunctional research installation at its premises in Mol, Belgium. MYRRHA will be the world's first multifunctional research reactor powered by a particle accelerator. MYRRHA is a technological first with solutions to major societal questions. From less long-lived radioactive waste and new cancer treatments to new...
