Description

The Pacific Ocean Neutrino Experiment (P-ONE) is a planned cubic kilometer undersea neutrino detector that will be deployed off the coast of Canada. The goal of P-ONE is to study high-energy neutrinos and their production mechanisms in faraway cosmic sources. P-ONE will consist of 1400 modules, which are being developed with the goal of precision timing and calibration to optimize angular resolution and sensitivity to these sources. The P-ONE optical modules will each contain 16 photomultiplier tubes to collect Cherenkov light that is produced as a result of neutrino interactions in the water. In addition, the modules will contain environmental sensors, calibration flashers, acoustic receivers, and a muon tagger. The modules also have a mainboard that contains a sophisticated ADC to quickly collect and digitize data, as well as an FPGA for onboard storage and data processing. This talk will focus on the P-ONE detection module design as a whole, with specific focus on the mainboard, ADC, and the testing of the software and firmware done in the development of these modules.
