نویسنده
چکیده
The HADES first level trigger is studied for the system p+Ni at a beam energy of 2 AGeV. The timing properties of the trigger signal are reported. The efficiency loss due to deadtime is specified. A trigger requirement of a time overlap window with the start detector is described. The trigger rates for different overlap windows are given.

Simulation studies of the HADES first level trigger. PART I: Performance in heavy-ion induced reactions
The first level trigger of the HADES spectrometer is studied for the heavy-ion collision systems Au+Au and Ne+Ne. The trigger efficiency for central events is given in dependence of the imposed charged particle multiplicity condition. The timing properties of the trigger signal are described. The losses due to deadtime are specified. Finally, the first level trigger rate is reported. UCY–PHY–96...
متن کاملSecondary Particles Produced by Hadron Therapy
Introduction Use of hadron therapy as an advanced radiotherapy technique is increasing. In this method, secondary particles are produced through primary beam interactions with the beam-transport system and the patient’s body. In this study, Monte Carlo simulations were employed to determine the dose of produced secondary particles, particularly neutrons during treatment. Materials and Methods I...

متن کاملUsing a neural network approach for muon reconstruction and triggering
The extremely high rate of events that will be produced in the future Large Hadron Collider requires the triggering mechanism to take precise decisions in a few nano-seconds. We present a study which used an artificial neural network triggering algorithm and compared it to the performance of a dedicated electronic muon triggering system. Relatively simple architecture was used to solve a compli...
