ALICE Trigger System
The ALICE Trigger System is made up of two independent parts: a Central Trigger Processor (CTP) and a Trigger Distribution Network. The CTP provides the trigger decision logic. It generates triggers for the readout detectors by evaluating inputs from triggering detectors. The Trigger Distribution Network delivers these triggers to the detectors; in addition it is capable of running in standalon...
متن کاملALICE diffractive physics in p-p and Pb-Pb collisions at the LHC
The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider LHC is presently being commissioned. ALICE consists of a central barrel, a muon spectrometer and neutron calorimeters at 00. Additional detectors for event classification and trigger purposes are located on both sides of the central barrel. The geometry of the ALICE detector allows the implementation of a diffractive double gap trigger by requir...
متن کاملALICE TPC Online Tracking on GPU
For the ALICE High Level Trigger a fast tracking algorithm was developed by Sergey Gorbunov based on the Cellular Automaton method and the Kalman filter [1], that is currently installed in the HLT. For an efficient handling of upcoming lead-lead collisions in 2010 with a tremendous increase of clusters and tracks, possibilities for a better usage of parallelism and many core hardware were analy...
متن کاملStructure and function of a general purpose input output processor
This paper describes a processor architecture designed specifically to perform input/output and interfacing functions for any central-processor-peripheral configuration. This architecture is justified on the basis of functional I/O requirements which are discussed in detail. This processor is microprogrammable with a writeable control store, allowing dynamic configuration of the processor for d...
متن کاملCalibration of the Prompt L0 Trigger of the Silicon Pixel Detector for the ALICE Experiment
The ALICE Silicon Pixel Detector (SPD) is the innermost detector of the ALICE experiment at LHC. It includes 1200 front-end chips, with a total of ~10 pixel channels. The pixel size is 50 x 425 μm. Each front-end chip transmits a Fast-OR signal upon registration of at least one hit in its pixel matrix. The signals are extracted every 100 ns and processed by the Pixel Trigger (PIT) system, to ge...
