High precision clock distribution is of primary importance for the accurate synchronization of distributed detectors in medium to large-scale physics experiments and in some other scientific instruments as well. Common techniques for distributing a reference clock to a large number of end-points often rely on high-speed serial transceivers embedded in Field Programmable Gate Arrays and use...
The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a multi-purpose underground neutrino experiment currently under construction in southern China. JUNO is equipped with 17612 large 20-inch photomultipliers (LPMTs) in the Central Detector, which is designed to detect photons using a high-speed, high-resolution waveform digitization technique. To augment the detection capabilities, 25600...
The Belle II experiment is an experiment at the SuperKEKB, an electron-positron collider, and the Belle II detector operated at the near the energies of Upsilon 4S resonance. The run 1 operation was successfully finished in June 2022, and the first long shutdown was started. During the shutdown period, the online storage and express-reconstruction system has been upgraded. The goals of...
One of the main goals of the Deep Underground Neutrino experiment (DUNE) is to detect and study neutrinos from galactic core-collapse supernovas (SNs). In the baseline design, a SN trigger is generated upon detecting sufficient detector activity consistent with a SN candidate. This causes roughly 0.5PB of raw data to be buffered in the underground caverns, as they await network transfer back...
Reconfigurability is one of the main advantages of FPGAs over ASICs. Partial reconfiguration exploits this ability even further by allowing to exchange the logic on predefined FPGA regions at runtime. This is especially relevant in heterogeneous SoCs, combining FPGA fabric with conventional processors on a single die. Tight integration and supporting frameworks, such as the FPGA subsystem in...
