Description

The NA61/SHINE detector is facing major upgrade process during Long Shutdown 2
period (2019-2021). Which is required to fulfill all assumptions of the open charm
measurement program. The main purpose of the upgrade is to increase the readout
rate by factor 10 and increase acceptance in the high density tracks environment.
The following elements of the detector are parts of the upgrade: Time Projection
Chambers (TPC), Vertex Detector (VD), Beam Position Detectors (BPD) and Particle
Spectator Detector (PSD) On top of detectors, new Trigger and Data Acquisition (TDAQ)
system has to be developed. This means completely new design of trigger system and
readout scheme. Finally data analysis software also needs to be redesigned.
In the proposed talk the progress on design and development of new detectors and
TDAQ system for NA61/SHINE experiment will be presented.
