Oral

This contribution presents the actual status and progress of the electronics developed for the Resistive Plate Chamber detector of HADES. This new detector for the Time of Flight detection system will contain 1000 RPC modules, covering a total active area of around 7 m2. The Front-End electronics consist of custom-made boards that exploit the benefit of the use of commercial...

Oral

A proposal for a new system to capture signals in the Optical Module (OM) of an Underwater Neutrino Telescope is described. It concentrates on the problem of power consumption in relation to precision. In particular, a solution for the interface between the photomultiplier (PMT) and the front-end electronics is presented. We have used the most recent data coming from simulations of high...
