10. Corryvreckan reconstruction software

Jens Kroeger (Ruprecht Karls Universitaet Heidelberg (DE))

28/01/2020, 09:00

Corryvreckan is a modular test beam data reconstruction and analysis framework developed within the CLICdp collaboration. Its modular structure allows for a separation between the framework core and the implementation of the algorithms in each module. This allows users to ‘plug-in’ the wanted modules and configure their parameters easily from one configuration file. The software is written in...

16. A generic ROOT monitoring tool for eudaq2

Laurent Forthomme (Helsinki Institute of Physics (FI))

28/01/2020, 09:20

An example of a successful integration in the eudaq2 environment of a readout board developed and used at the joint CMS-TOTEM Precision Proton Spectrometer (PPS) along LHC Run 2 is presented. It allows to perform an online event matching between the DUT signals, digitised with a sampler chip (SAMPIC), and the EUDET telescope. To assess the activity of the system during the tests of this new...

42. The Caribou DAQ System and its EUDAQ2 Integration

Simon Spannagel (University of Glasgow (GB))

28/01/2020, 09:40

Developing a new silicon detector requires significant effort for preparing the readout hardware and software for the prototype to be operated in the laboratory and test beams. The aim of the Caribou DAQ system is to significantly reduce the manpower and cost of developing such a system from scratch for every new chip. By utilizing modern system-on-chip (SoC) platforms, it combines...

18. Measurements performed with a test DAQ system developed for the CMS Phase-2 outer tracker upgrade

Mykyta Haranko (DESY)

30/01/2020, 10:00

The CMS detector at the LHC is foreseen to experience a major upgrade in order to cope with increased radiation flux due to the high-luminosity operation phase of the accelerator. The CMS tracker will be replaced completely, introducing a new module concept in the outer part of the subsystem, which will exploit the strong magnetic field inside the CMS detector to select high transverse...

51. The DAQling Framework

Enrico Gamberini (CERN)

30/01/2020, 10:20

The data acquisition (DAQ) software for most applications in high energy physics is composed of common building blocks, such as a networking layer, plug-in loading, configuration, and process management. These are often re-invented and developed from scratch for each project or experiment around specific needs. In some cases, time and available resources can be limited and make development...

31. The BL4S Data Acquisition System

Cristovao Beirao Da Cruz E Silva (CERN)

30/01/2020, 10:40

The Beamline for Schools (BL4S) competition is a worldwide competition targeted at teams of high school students. The winning teams are invited to travel to a research institute and perform their proposed experiments in a real test beam setup. The first five years the experiments were performed at CERN, but in 2019, due to the ongoing shutdown at CERN, the experiments were performed at the...
