35. Progress with the CMS Tracker control system

Mr Karl Aaron Gill (CERN)

15/09/2005, 14:00

Oral

The recent progress on the CMS Tracker control system is reviewed in depth, with a report of activities and results related to ongoing parts production, acceptance testing, integration and system testing, as well as controls software development. The integration of final parts into Tracker systems and the subsequent testing is described taking the Tracker Outer Barrel as an example application.

44. The Detector Control System for the ALICE Time Projection Chamber Front-end electronics

Mr Matthias Richter (University of Bergen, Dep. of Physics and Technology)

15/09/2005, 14:25

Oral

The ALICE Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is read out by 4356 Front-End Cards serving roughly 560000 channels. Each channel has to be configured and monitored individually. As one part of the overall controlling of the detector this task is covered by the Detector Control System (DCS). Since fault tolerance, error correction and system stability in general are major concerns, a system...

5. Design and performance of the front-end electronics of the LHCb Muon Detector

Dr walter Bonivento (INFN CAGLIARI, Italy)

15/09/2005, 14:50

Oral

The system architecture of the front-end electronics of the LHCb Muon Detector, consisting of wire-chamber detectors and, for a small region, of triple-GEM detectors, is reviewed. The design of the front-end boards and of the ASD chip, the CARIOCA and the CARIOCA-GEM, are discussed in detail, together with the performances measured both with test benches in the lab and on chamber with...

61. Advanced Front End Signal Processing Electronics for ATLAS CSC System: Status and post production performance.

Mr Sachin Junnarkar (Brookhaven National Laboratory)

Tracking

Oral

The ATLAS muon spectrometer will employ Cathode Strip Chambers (CSC) to measure high momentum muons in the extreme forward regions [1]. Preamplification of the charge on the strips is performed in the Amplifier Shaper Module I. Amplifier Shaper Module II performs the analog buffering, digitization of the charge signals from individual cathode strips and multiplexes the data into two...

105. Performances of the Coincidence Matrix ASIC of the ATLAS Barrel Level-1 Muon Trigger

Mr Riccardo Vari (Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN))

15/09/2005, 15:40

Oral

The ATLAS Barrel Level-1 muon trigger handles data coming from the Resistive Plate Chamber detectors, structured in three concentric layers inside the air-core barrel toroid. The trigger classifies muons within different programmable transverse momentum thresholds, and tags the identified tracks with the corresponding bunch crossing number. The algorithm looks for hit coincidences...
