Performance Measurement of the ATLAS Local Monitor Box with the Liquid Argon Subdetector
نویسنده
چکیده
The concept of the "Local Monitor Box" (LMB) as a modular building block is described. The first implementation consists of a CAN bus node and a 16+7 bit delta-sigma ADC for the readout of Pt100 high precision temperature sensors. The CANOpen standard is employed as high-level software protocol. The general implementation will be discussed and results from tests performed with the ATLAS LAr calorimeter are presented.

Liquid Argon Pollution Tests of the ATLAS Detector Materials at IBR-2 Reactor in Dubna
A cold test facility has been in operation since October 1998 at the IBR-2 reactor of JINR, Dubna. During four measurement campaigns, various samples of the ATLAS forward (FCAL) and hadronic end cap (HEC) calorimeter materials have been exposed to a fast neutron (En 100 keV) uence of about 10 16 n cm . The samples were immersed in a liquid argon cryostat, and an -cell has been used as purity mo...
متن کاملQuality Control of Optical Transmitters for the ATLAS Liquid Argon Calorimeter
A quality control test is performed on nearly 2000 custom optical transmitters for use in the Liquid Argon Calorimeter of the ATLAS detector. More than 90% of these optical transmitters passed the test and have been installed in the calorimeter readout system. The acceptance criteria, measurement procedure, and results of the quality control test are presented in this note.
متن کاملPurity Monitor Studies in Medium Liquid Argon TPC
This paper is an attempt to describe some of the results that had been found through a journey of study in the field of particle physics. This study consists of two parts, one about the measurement of the cross section of the decay of the Z particle in two electrons, and the other deals with the measurement of the cross section of the multi-photon absorption process using a beam of Laser in the...
متن کاملThe ATLAS liquid argon hadronic end-cap calorimeter: construction and selected beam test results
ATLAS has chosen for its Hadronic End-Cap Calorimeter (HEC) the copper-liquid argon sampling technique with flat plate geometry and GaAs pre-amplifiers in the argon. The contruction of the calorimeter is now approaching completion. Results of production quality checks are reported and their anticipated impact on calorimeter performance discussed. Selected results, such as linearity, electron an...
متن کاملCommissioning and Performance of the ATLAS Liquid Argon Calorimeters
The ATLAS liquid argon (LAr) calorimeter system consists of an electromagnetic barrel calorimeter and two end-caps with electromagnetic, hadronic and forward calorimeters. The construction of the full calorimeter system is completed since mid-2004. The detector has been operated with LAr at nominal high voltage and fully equipped with readout electronics. Online software, monitoring tools and o...
