We have implemented a cost-effective design for the readout electronics of both anode wires and cathode pads large area proportional wire chambers HERA-B muon system based on ASD-08 integrated circuit. To control monitor number channels, we built distributed Philips Semiconductors' I/sup 2/C bus microcontrollers. date installed about 10800 channels electronics. The average single channel noise occupancy is less than 10/sup -5/, detectors been operated with target interaction rates as high 70 MHz.
The main building block and readout unit of the planned CDF Run IIb silicon detector is a "stave," highly integrated mechanical, thermal, electrical structure. One its characteristic features copper-on-Kapton flexible cable for power, high voltage, data transmission, control signals that placed directly below microstrip sensors. dense packaging makes deadtime-less operation stave challenge since coupling bus activity into sensors must be suppressed efficiently. design relevant are discussed....
The various generations of Silicon Vertex Detectors (SVX, SVX', SVXII) for Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) the Tevatron have been fundamental tools heavy-flavor tagging via secondary vertex detection. CDF Run IIb (SVXIIb) has designed to be a radiation-tolerant replacement currently installed SVXII because was not expected survive luminosity anticipated IIb. One major change in new design is use single mechanical and electrical element throughout array. This element, called stave,...
The Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) operates in the beamline of Tevatron proton-antiproton collider Batavia, IL. is expected to undergo luminosity upgrades (Run IIb) future, resulting a higher number interactions per beam crossing. To operate this dense radiation environment, an upgrade CDF's silicon vertex detector subsystem and corresponding its VME-based DAQ system has been explored. Prototypes all Run IIb SVX components have constructed, assembled into test stand, operated...
We report on recent heavy quark results from CDF in Run II. focus a selection of mature analyses that demonstrate the capabilities experiment to extract interesting physics data. A few presented have already been submitted for publication and papers are being prepared most others.
