Large-scale real-time signal processing in physics experiments: The ALICE TPC FPGA pipeline
J. Alme, T. Alt, C. Andrei +119
For LHC Run 3, the ALICE Time Projection Chamber was upgraded to operate in continuous readout mode. Interaction rates of up to 50 kHz in Pb-Pb collisions require real-time process…

Silvermyr B. Sitar J. Stachel K. Ullaland R. Veenhof V. Vislavicius J. Wiechula B. Windelband
A large-volume Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is the main tracking and particle identification (PID) detector of the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. PID in the TPC is performed vi…
SPECT: A spin-flip loaded magnetic ultracold neutron trap for a determination of the neutron lifetime
J. Auler, M. Engler, K. Franz +13
The confinement of ultracold neutrons (UCNs) in a three dimensional magnetic field gradient trap allows for a measurement of the free neutron lifetime with superior control over sp…
