The retina experiment aims at developing a fast track finding system prototype for the high-luminosity LHC, capable to operate at 40 MHz event rate with hundreds of track per event. According to simulations this is technologically achievable by using the artificial retina algorithm, a massive parallel fast tracking algorithm, implemented in last generation commercial FPGAs. The artificial...

The upgrade of the LHC will provide 7 times greater instantaneous and total luminosities than assumed in the original design of the ATLAS Liquid Argon (LAr) Calorimeters. Radiation tolerance criteria and an improved trigger system with higher acceptance rate and longer latency require an upgrade of the LAr readout electronics. In the first upgrade phase in 2019-2020, a trigger readout with up...

The ALPIDE chip is a CMOS Monolithic Active Pixel Sensor being
developed for the Upgrade of the Inner
Tracking System (ITS) of the ALICE experiment at CERN Large Hadron
Collider.
ALICE is the first experiment at LHC implementing a large detector
with MAPS technology.
The ALPIDE chip is implemented with a 180~nm CMOS Imaging Process and
fabricated on substrates with a high-resistivity...
