(The University of Chicago)

The University of Chicago is a private, coeducational research university in Chicago, Illinois, USA. It was founded by oil magnate and philanthropist John D. Rockefeller and incorporated in 1890; William Rainey Harper became its first president in 1891 and the first classes were held in 1892.

Introduction We propose a design of Level-1 trigger and readout chain for the upcoming J-Parc experiment that supports trigger rates in excess of 100 KHz with virtually no downtime. The design has been implemented and tested on an Altera Stratix II FPGA Development Kit. Experiment Very rare decay KL→π0νν probes CP violation in the quark sector Flavor Changing Neutral Current: s→d Major background: KL→π0π0 Must efficiently detect photons CsI EM calorimeter: ~2800 crystals placed in a grid Each crystal = 1 readout channel Acknowledgments I would like to thank Yau Wah, Harold Sanders, Mircea Bogdan, Fukun Tang, and Jim Pilcher for providing guidance in the course of this research. Digital Electronics in FPGA Impractical to save all ADC data at 125 Mhz Data Rate = 570 gigabytes/second (!!!) Use trigger: only save signals that pass energy threshold 100 KhZ trigger ↔ 5 megabytes/second This data must be pipelined before PC can read it out Accomplished in a Field Programmable Field Array (FPGA): Digital semiconductor device that can be reprogrammed after it is manufactured. Each FPGA serves 16 readout channels: Trigger block subtracts baseline, averages jitter, applies threshold: Temp buffers pipeline events while computer reads out others System of buffer priorities optimizes readout Final events saved into a large VME memory and read out by PC Also displayed on the scope Conclusions and follow-up The designe...

Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) Anton Kapliy University of Chicago Each cell in MRAM is represented by an MTJ. Being in a parallel or antiparallel state defines binary memory states “0” (low R) and “1” (high R). MRAM cells are organized into a 2-d grid such that each MTJ lies at the intersection of a Word/Digit Line and a Bit Line (see image on the left). This way we can address any cell of interest. Starting around 2006, MRAM research shifted towards the Spin Transfer Toque technique for changing layer magnetization. Electrons pass through the fixed layer and get spin-polarized along M1 Electrons next move through the free layer and repolarize along M2 By angular momentum conservation, they apply a torque on electrons in the free layer, so that their spin turns in the direction of M1 With sufficient current, free layer becomes polarized parallel to M1 Since spin transfer method doesn’t require a strong externally-generated B-field, it promises lower power consumption and better scalability. MRAM has many benefits over alternative technologies: Non-volatile (draws no power when idle) No mechanical parts and no wear mechanism Low power and high density Much faster than Flash memory However, it still faces many challenges: Requires good material uniformity (e.g., for small MTJ resistance variation) Close packing reduces switching barrier; prone to thermal auto-switching B-field from neighboring locations starts to interfere as size is reduced Low a...

Introduction This project used cosmic rays to test a prototype Minimum Bias Trigger Scintillator (MBTS) that will be used in the ATLAS experiment at CERN (Fig. 1). The efficiency of the MBTS counter at detecting minimum ionizing particles was characterized. Two separate sections in the MBTS prototype were tested. Materials and Methods A simple apparatus was built to test the MBTS counter. The MBTS scintillator was laid horizontally on a table, supported by wooden blocks. Two trigger counters sandwiched the MBTS counter and were used as a cosmic telescope to select cosmic rays passing through it (Fig. 2). The MBTS counter was read out with Tile Calorimeter electronics. The signal out of the trigger cable was measured with additional electronics, including a pulse height analyzer (Fig. 3). Acknowledgments I am grateful to Professor Jim Pilcher for supervising this project. I also thank Kelby Anderson and the rest of the ATLAS group at the University of Chicago for their help. Results The efficiency of the cosmic telescope was measured as a function of the photomultiplier HV for one trigger counter (Fig. 4a). The PMT high voltage for the other trigger counter was fixed to 1600V for full efficiency. The efficiency of the cosmic telescope was also measured as a function of the relative delay imposed between the signals from the two trigger scintillators (Fig. 4b). Conclusions The efficiency of a prototype Minimum Bias Trigger Scintillator was measured using cosmic rays...
