Developing and Commissioning Babar Electronics

نویسنده

چکیده

Many aspects of the architecture and performance requirements of the electronics system for the BABAR Experiment are similar to those for the much larger LHC experiments. We briefly describe the requirements and architecture of BABAR Electronics, focusing on aspects that are similar to the LHC. We then discuss the experience of developing the system from design to operation, including such topics as prototype and system tests, manufacturing, grounding and shielding, integration, and initial performance. We focus primarily on front-end electronics, including IC development; however, we also discuss data acquisition.

Status of PEP-II and BaBar

The SLAC B Factory was approved by President Clinton in October 1993. The inaugural meeting of the detector collaboration was held at SLAC in December 1993, at which time the 9 nation BaBar collaboration began. First funding for the machine construction was released in January 1994, launching the SLAC/LBNL/LLNL PEP-II project collaboration [1]. The detector technical design report was completed...

Resistive Plate Chamber Performance in the BaBar IFR System

The BaBar Collaboration has operated a system covering over 2000 m with resistive plate chambers for nearly three years. The chambers are constructed of bakelite sheets separated by 2 mm. The inner surfaces are coated with linseed oil. This system provides muon and neutral hadron detection for BaBar. Installation and commissioning were completed in 1998, and operation began mid-1999. While init...

P-187: Challenges of Commissioning Mothers in Iran for Selection of Surrogate Mothers

s:1640:"Background: Surrogacy is one of the most controversial procedures in infertility treatment. Despite increasing of using this technology in Iran, there are few practical data about surrogacy. There isn't any study assessing experiences of commissioning mothers about surrogate mother selection. The purpose of this study was exploring of commissioning mothers' experiences in sele...

Status of the CMS Silicon Strip Tracker and Commissioning Results

The main subsystems of the CMS Tracker have been assembled together in a dedicated large clean room at CERN, prior to the installation in CMS. Following the integration of the Tracker a long commissioning period took place, during which, up to 15% of the silicon modules were operated and read out simultaneously at different temperatures. Some of the achievements of this commissioning phase are ...

The BaBar Drift Chamber

The central drift chamber for the BaBar detector at the PEP-II Bfactory at SLAC is a cylindrical chamber with a length of 280 cm and outer radius of 81 cm. It consists of 40 layers of small hexagonal cells arranged in 10 axial and stereo super-layers. In order to minimize multiple scattering, light materials are used for the mechanical structure, and the gas mixture is Helium based. The pulse-h...
