Particle Physics Instrumentation
This report summarizes a series of three lectures aimed at giving an overview of basic particle detection principles, the interaction of particles with matter, the application of these principles in modern detector systems, as well techniques to read out detector signals in high-rate experiments.
متن کاملInflationary Models and Connections to Particle Physics †
The basic workings of inflationary models are summarized, along with the arguments that strongly suggest that our universe is the product of inflation. The mechanisms that lead to eternal inflation in both new and chaotic models are described. Although the infinity of pocket universes produced by eternal inflation are unobservable, it is argued that eternal inflation has real consequences in te...
متن کاملBlind Analysis in Nuclear and Particle Physics
Over the past decade or so, blind analysis has become a widely used tool in nuclear and particle physics measurements. A blind analysis avoids the possibility of experimenters biasing their result toward their own preconceptions by preventing them from knowing the answer until the analysis is complete. There is at least circumstantial evidence that such a bias has affected past measurements, an...
متن کاملPET Imaging Physics and Instrumentation
This article deals with how PET images are formed, and the equipment needed to form them. The reader will be introduced to the different types of PET system geometries, and the advantages and disadvantages of each system. Emission scans are compared and contrasted to transmission scans, and the concept of attenuation correction is introduced. The issues pertaining to image quality are discussed...
متن کاملApplication of Virtual Instrumentation in Nuclear Physics Experiments
The new way in the design of computer-based measurement systems can be seen in the use of up-to-date measurement, control and testing systems based on reliable devices. Digital signal processing (DSP) is used in all engineering areas, such as in nuclear physics experiments, to in order replace conventional analog systems and to build measurement and test systems with an easy configuration, user...
