Dr Axel Winter (ITER Organization)09/06/2016, 08:30Real Time System Architectures and Intelligent Signal ProcessingOral presentationThis paper will provide an overview of the various real-time software processes which are distributed across ITER. This begins with the software processing done at a diagnostic level to process the initially acquired data and produce a meaningful signal for plasma control, which is typically a physics measurement (e.g. the plasma current). These signals are used -among many others- in central...Go to contribution page

Dr Samo Gerksic (Jozef Stefan Institute)09/06/2016, 09:00Control, Monitoring,Test and Real Time Diagnostics SystemsOral presentationIn a magnetically confined tokamak reactor, the Plasma Current and Shape Controller (PCSC) is the component of Plasma Magnetic Control (PMC) that commands the voltages applied to the poloidal field coils, to control the coil currents and the plasma parameters, such as the plasma shape, current, and position. The PCSC acts on the system pre-stabilised by the Vertical Stabilisation controller,...Go to contribution page

Julián Nieto Valhondo (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid), Mariano Ruiz (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid)09/06/2016, 09:20Data AcquisitionOral presentationThe large amount of data generated by image diagnostics used in big physics experiments requires an efficient use of hardware technologies in real time data acquisition and processing applications. In order to get the best performance of the hardware, it is necessary to provide the hardware and software tools that enable a fast and easy way to deployment these kind of solutions.

Martin L. Purschke (Brookhaven National Laboratory (US))09/06/2016, 09:40Data AcquisitionOral presentationThe recently established sPHENIX Collaboration at RHIC is upgrading the PHENIX detector in a way that will enable a comprehensive measurement of jets in relativistic heavy ion collisions. The upgrade will give the experiment full azimuthal coverage within a pseudorapidity range of $-1.1 < \eta < 1.1$. In addition to measuring heavy-ion collisions, the new apparatus will provide enhanced...Go to contribution page

Alberto Gianoli (Universita di Ferrara & INFN (IT))09/06/2016, 10:00Oral presentationThe GigaTracker (GTK) system is a magnetic spectrometer made of 3 detector stations and 4 achromat magnets for the NA62 experiment. NA62 aims to measure the branching ratio of the ultra-rare ${K}^{\pm}\rightarrow {\pi}^{+}\nu \bar{\nu}$ at the CERN SPS. The detector measures the momentum, direction and crossing time of all the secondary beam charged particles. The detector has to cope with a...Go to contribution page
