Waveform digitization remains the baseline method for reading out large scale neutrino detectors consisting of thousands of channels of photomultiplier tubes (PMTs). Because events in these detectors happen relatively infrequently, this method results in high cost, high power, and extremely high data volumes to extract a relatively small amount of key data. The problems are compounded when...

The advent of Low-Gain Avalanche Diodes (LGADs) and AC-coupled Low-Gain Avalanche Diodes (AC-LGADs) as candidate technologies for four-dimensional tracking has moved part of the reconstruction burden onto the analog waveforms of the sensor, in which the charge shared between electrodes encodes the impact position well below the electrode pitch. Recovering that position is a continuous,...
