NEMO - 3 Calorimeter Electronics
نویسندگان
چکیده
The calorimeter electronics of the NEMO-3 double beta decay experiment fulfills three functions: energy measurement of the electrons by measuring the charge of the pulses, time measurement, fast first level triggering. The electronics of the 1940 Scintillator-PM modules is implemented as 40 "9U x 400mm VME" boards of up to 51 channels. For each channel the analog signals conditioning is implemented as one SMD daughter board. Each board performs 12 bit charge measurements with 0.35 pC charge resolution, 12 bit time measurements with 50 ps time resolution and a fast analog multiplicity level for triggering. The total handling and conversion time for all the channels is less than 100 μs. The electronics will be presented as well as the test system.

The Nemo-3 Experiment and the Supernemo Project
The NEMO experiment is investigating the neutrinoless double beta decay. The NEMO-3 detector is taking data in the Frejus Underground Laboratory. The goal of the SuperNEMO detector is to reach a sensitivity on the order of 10 year on the half-life of the ββ0ν process. The chosen isotopes for the future detector are Se and Nd, because of the reduced background. The collaboration has started a 3-...

The NEMO collaboration is presently mounting the NEMO-3 detector in the Fréjus Underground Laboratory. This detector, which will be completed by the end of the year 2000, is devoted to the search of neutrinoless double beta decay with various isotopes. Much attention has been focused on 100 Mo and 82 Se with their large Q ββ-values. The detector is based on the direct detection of the two elect...

متن کاملThe NA48 LKr calorimeter digitizer electronics chain
The 13 500 channels of the NA48 liquid-krypton electromagnetic calorimeter readout electronics were put into operation in 1997. The digitizer electronics employs a new gain switching technique that expands the dynamic range of a standard 10-bit ADC to 14 bits at 40MHz sampling rate employing a custom-developed integrated circuit (KRYPTON). The KRYPTON has been fabricated in 1.2lm BiCMOS technol...
متن کاملMyosin motor Myo1c and its receptor NEMO/IKK-γ promote TNF-α–induced serine307 phosphorylation of IRS-1
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) signaling through the IkappaB kinase (IKK) complex attenuates insulin action via the phosphorylation of insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) at Ser307. However, the precise molecular mechanism by which the IKK complex phosphorylates IRS-1 is unknown. In this study, we report nuclear factor kappaB essential modulator (NEMO)/IKK-gamma subunit accumulation i...
