258. FUNDAMENTAL PHYSICS WITH ULTRACOLD NEUTRONS

Experiments: Precision techniques at low energy

Invited

The knowledge of fundamental properties of the neutron helps us understand many aspect of the universe. CP violation might show up in a non-zero electric dipole moment (EDM) of the neutron, making EDM
measurements the flagship of fundamental neutron physics.
Furthermore, 100 s after the Big Bang, the neutron lifetime influences e.g. the helium abundance in the Universe. Combined with other...

89. SciFi - A large Scintillating Fibre Tracker for LHCb

Experiments: Trackers

Invited

The LHCb detector is currently being upgraded to cope with higher instantaneous luminosities and to read out data at 40 MHz using a trigger-less read-out system. The new main tracker consists of 250µm thick scintillating fibres (SciFi) and covers an area of 340 m$^2$. The tracker provides a spatial resolution for charged particles better than 80 µm. The scintillation light is recorded with...

137. The CMS Level-1 Trigger Upgrade for the HL-LHC

Readout: Trigger and DAQ

Invited

High Luminosity LHC will expand the physics reach of the CMS experiment, but only if the data can be efficiently collected. CMS is developing a new Level-1 trigger system to handle the increased data rate. An essential new feature is the availability of reconstructed tracks for every bunch crossing that can be used by the trigger system's decision making process, allowing new trigger options...
