117. High-Level Python-based Hardware Description Language (HLPyHDL)

PESCHKE, Richard (University of Hawaii)

Real Time System Architectures and Intelligent Signal Processing

Oral presentation

Abstract
We present a High-Level Python-based Hardware Description Language (HLPyHDL), which uses object-oriented Python as a source language and converts it to standard VHDL.

It uses python as its source language and converts it to standard VHDL. Compared to other approaches of building converters from a high-level programming language into a hardware description language, this new...

128. Waveform Feature Extraction in Belle II Time-of-Propagation (TOP) Detector

KOHANI, Shahab (University of Hawaii at Manoa)

23/10/2020, 00:20

Real Time System Architectures and Intelligent Signal Processing

Oral presentation

The Time of Propagation (TOP) subdetector at the Belle II experiment requires a single photon timing resolution of below 100 picoseconds to identify the type of charged hadrons produced in $e^+e^-$ collisions at SuperKEKB collider. Due to data bandwidth constraints only the amplitude and the timing information calculated from the digitized photon pulses are transmitted to the Belle II DAQ...

Data Acquisition System Architectures

Oral presentation

PicoPET is a new generation of advanced data acquisition system for modern nuclear imaging. Very different from conventional front-end electronics designs, the key innovation of the PicoPET electronics is to include almost all functions of the front-end readout electronics, including signal splitting for energy and timing measurements, signal clustering and event triggering for detectors with...

68. Performance of the Unified Readout System of Belle II

NAKAO, Mikihiko (KEK)

23/10/2020, 01:00

Data Acquisition System Architectures

Oral presentation

Belle II experiment at the SuperKEKB collider at KEK, Tsukuba, Japan has successfully started the data taking with the full detector in March 2019, as the luminosity frontier experiment of the new generation to search for physics beyond the Standard Model of elementary particles. In order to read out the events from the seven subdetectors and the trigger system to precisely measure the decay...

94. PCI-express based high-speed readout for the Belle II DAQ Upgrade

ZHOU, Qidong (High Energy Accelerator Research Organization (JP))

23/10/2020, 01:20

Data Acquisition System Architectures

Oral presentation

Belle II is an experiment dedicated to explore the new physics beyond the Standard Model of elementary particles at the beam intensity frontier, SuperKEKB accelerator, which is located at KEK, Japan. Belle II has started data-taking since April, 2018, with a synchronous data acquisition (DAQ) system based on a pipelined trigger flow control. Belle II DAQ system is designed to handle 30 kHz...

208. FPGA-BASED REAL-TIME IMAGE MANIPULATION AND ADVANCED DATA ACQUISITION FOR 2D-XRAY DETECTORS

Dr MANSOUR, Wassim (ESRF)

23/10/2020, 01:40

Data Acquisition System Architectures

Oral presentation

Scientific experiments rely on some type of measurements that provides the required data to extract aimed information or conclusions. Data production and analysis are therefore essential components at the heart of any scientific experimental application.
Traditionally, efforts on detector development for photon sources have focused on the properties and performance of the detection...

223. Design and DAQ development of a scaleable flat-panel PET system for In-room detection in proton therapy.

NEMALLAPUDI, Mythra Varun (Academia Sinica)

Data Acquisition System Architectures

Oral presentation

Proton therapy achieves a precise cancer treatment due to a localized dose deposition. However there are several sources of range uncertainties that pose a risk to the vital organs in the vicinity of the Bragg peak, thus limiting the scope of the proton therapy. Range verification through secondary particle detection can help us overcome this problem. Our group has developed a scaleable flat...
