Time-of-flight techniques with resolution of a one to several picoseconds would allow the measurement of 4-vectors of relativistic particles at high energy colliders, the association of photons with collision vertices, and the construction of spectrometers with which to study muon cooling without magnetic spectrometers.
In order to take advantage of photo-detectors with intrinsic single...

The size and complexity of the latest generations of FPGAs has increased dramatically. This in turn means that the time taken to develop and build even small firmware projects is increasing exponentially. Pre-constrained logic placement and routing is becoming critically important for the use of specialized components in the FPGA such as serial link interfaces. This necessitates significant...

Totem is an experiment located at CERN and devoted to the measurement of the proton-proton elastic and total cross section at LHC. TOTEM and CMS foresee a program of common measurements on diffractive physics.
This presentation will be focused on the design of T1 detector, devoted to the measurement of the inelastic rate, made of Cathod Strip Chambers.
We will present the complete...
