Readout electronics for beam monitor in the External-Target Experiment of CSR
摘要
The Cooling Storage Ring (CSR) external-target experiment (CEE) will be the first large-scale nuclear physics experiment at the Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL). A beam monitor has been developed to monitor the beam status and to improve the reconstruction resolution of the primary vertex. Custom-designed pixel charge sensors, named Topmetal-CEEv1, are employed in the detector to locate the position of each particle. Readout electronics for the beam monitor were designed, including front-end electronics utilizing the Topmetal-CEEv1 sensors, as well as a readout and control unit that communicates with the DAQ, trigger, and clock systems. A series of tests were performed to validate the functionality and performance of the system, including basic electronic verifications and responses to
