In preparation of the operation of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter (ECAL) barrel at the High Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC) the entire on-detector electronics will be replaced. The new readout electronic comprises 12240 very front end (VFE), 2448 front end (FE) and low voltage regulator (LVR) cards arranged into readout towers (RTs) of five VFE, one FE and one LVR cards. The...
The Beam Gas Ionization (BGI) profile monitor, situated within the PS and SPS accelerators, requires a radiation-tolerant readout system to transfer data from the challenging accelerator surroundings to the back-end for processing. Operating 1m below the beam pipe, the front-end must ensure reliability, given limited hardware access, and preserve signal integrity for the high-speed Timepix3...
The Radiation Monitoring System (RadMon) for CERN accelerator complex measures radiation levels in the accelerator tunnels, adjacent shielded galleries and experimental areas. This allows the correlation of observed radiation-induced equipment failures with the respective accumulated radiation levels. The main component of the system is the RadMon device, a compact detection and communication...
