  1. 5. The Upgrade of the ATLAS Level-1 Central Trigger Processor
    Stefan Haas (CERN)
    18/09/2012, 14:49
    Oral
    The ATLAS Level-1 Central Trigger Processor (CTP) combines information from calorimeter and muon trigger processors as well as other sources and makes the final Level-1 Accept (L1A) decision. Due to the increasing luminosity of the LHC and the growing demands of physics and monitoring placed on the ATLAS Level-1 trigger system, the current CTP has reached its design limits. Therefore and in...

  2. 73. ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger Upgrades for Phase I
    Dr Weiming Qian (Rutherford Appleton Laboratory)

    Oral
    The ATLAS Level-1 Trigger requires several upgrades to maintain physics sensitivity as the LHC luminosity is raised. One of the most challenging is the electron trigger, with a major development planned for installation in 2018. New on-detector electronics will be installed to digitise electromagnetic calorimetry signals, providing trigger access to shower profile information. The trigger...

  3. 86. CMS Level-1 Upgrade Calorimeter Trigger Prototype Development
    Pamela Renee Klabbers (University of Wisconsin (US))
    18/09/2012, 15:39
    Oral
    As the LHC increases luminosity and energy, it will become increasingly difficult to select interesting physics events and remain within the readout bandwidth limitations. An upgrade to the CMS Calorimeter Trigger implementing more complex algorithms is proposed. It utilizes AMC cards with Xilinx FPGAs running in micro-TCA crate with card interconnections via crate backplanes and optical...

  4. 144. A level 1 tracking trigger for the super LHC
    Marvin Johnson (FNAL)
    18/09/2012, 16:04
    Oral
    Many of the previous tracking triggers have been based on table lookups using content addressable memories. An alternative method is being developed that uses pairs of closely separated silicon sensors to incrementally find particle tracks. This system avoids a complicated memory lookup so it is fast enough to work as a level 1 trigger. We describe the readout and data processing architecture...
