Segmented Anodes with Sub-millimeter Spatial Resolution for MCP-Based Photodetectors
Jinseo Park, Fangjian Wu, Evan Angelico +2
Micro-channel-plate-based photo-detectors are unique in being capable of covering areas of many square-meters while providing sub-millimeter space resolution, time resolutions of l…
Measuring the Neutrino Event Time in Liquid Argon by a Post-Reconstruction One-parameter Fit
Evan Angelico, Andrey Elagin, Henry J. Frisch +1
We propose a relatively simple method to measure the event time in liquid Argon (LAr) TPC-based neutrino detectors that takes advantage of the topological reconstruction of each ev…
Performance of Large Area Picosecond Photo-Detectors (LAPPD)
A. V. Lyashenko, B. W. Adams, M. Aviles +14
We report on performance results achieved for recently produced LAPPDs - largest comercially available planar geometry photodetectors based on microchannel plates. These results in…
Drifting Photons on Optical Paths: Mirrors, Sub-mm Resolution in 4 Dimensions, and Transverse/Longitudinal Phase Space: Exploiting Time Resolution
Henry J. Frisch
I discuss the status of MCP-based photo-detector amplification sections and Cherenkov light sources for precise timing measurements of charged particles and gamma rays. Sub-psec re…
Capacitively coupled pickup in MCP-based photodetectors using a conductive metallic anode
Evan Angelico, Todd Seiss, Bernhard Adams +3
We have designed and tested a robust 20 20 cm thin metal film internal anode capacitively coupled to an external array of signal pads or micro-strips for use in fast m…
Separating Double-Beta Decay Events from Solar Neutrino Interactions in a Kiloton-Scale Liquid Scintillator Detector By Fast Timing
Andrey Elagin, Henry Frisch, Brian Naranjo +3
We present a technique for separating nuclear double beta decay (-decay) events from background neutrino interactions due to B decays in the sun. This background becomes…
A Modular Data Acquisition System using the 10 GSa/s PSEC4 Waveform Recording Chip
M. Bogdan, E. Oberla, H. J. Frisch +1
We describe a modular multi-channel data acquisition system based on the 5-15 Gigasample-per-second waveform-recording PSEC4 chip. The system architecture incorporates two levels o…
A Brief Technical History of the Large-Area Picosecond Photodetector (LAPPD) Collaboration
Bernhard W. Adams, Klaus Attenkofer, Mircea Bogdan +38
The Large Area Picosecond PhotoDetector (LAPPD) Collaboration was formed in 2009 to develop large-area photodetectors capable of time resolutions measured in pico-seconds, with acc…
Signal Processing for Pico-second Resolution Timing Measurements
Jean-Francois Genat, Gary Varner, Fukun Tang +1
The development of large-area homogeneous photo-detectors with sub-millimeter path lengths for direct Cherenkov light and for secondary-electrons opens the possibility of large tim…
Level-3 Calorimetric Resolution available for the Level-1 and Level-2 CDF Triggers
A. Canepa, M. Casarsa, T. Liu +12
As the Tevatron luminosity increases sophisticated selections are required to be efficient in selecting rare events among a very huge background. To cope with this problem, CDF has…
The Timing System for the CDF Electromagnetic Calorimeters
M. Goncharov, T. Kamon, V. Khotilovich +10
We report on the design and performance of the electromagnetic calorimeter timing readout system (EMTiming) for the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF). The system will be used in…
A 96-Channel FPGA-based Time-to-Digital Converter
Mircea Bogdan, Henry Frisch, Mary Heintz +8
We describe an FPGA-based, 96-channel, time-to-digital converter (TDC) intended for use with the Central Outer Tracker (COT) in the CDF Experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. The COT…
The CDF Calorimetry Upgrade for Run IIb
S. Kuhlmann, H. Frisch, M. Cordelli +8
The physics program at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider will continue to explore the high energy frontier of particle physics until the commissioning of the LHC at CERN. The luminosi…
